The need to record & contain stories is nearly as old as humankind. This class will introduce undergraduate students to the bookbinding techniques, materials, processes, for creating different structures to contain a variety of forms, progressing from simple to complex. Students will learn the narrative possibilities of the codex form, and investigate the expressive potential for non-traditional forms of the book. There will be a discussion of historic structures and the history of the book and how these forms fit into the movement of artist's books in the art world today.
