book: hello world. Liebl & Schmid-Pfähler

As the artist duo Carolin Liebl and Nikolas Schmid-Pfähler, we create artworks that experience a special vivification through elements of kinetics and robotics. They address the reciprocal relationship between humans and technology, which goes beyond a purely functional understanding. We have been doing this together for ten years now, and to mark the occasion we would like to publish a book that shows the full range of our creations:
From the absent-minded robot couple Vincent and Emily to the electricity-digesting giant worm Amplified Entity to our latest series of works exploring the materiality of plastics, it will all be there. There will be an introduction by Agnieszka Kubicka-Dzieduszycka, curator at the WRO Art Center in Wroclaw and text contributions by author and artist Thomas Georg Blank, and curator and author in the field of digital art Lucia Longhi. All texts are in German and English. Graphic designer Lara Hies has conjured up a great layout on 160 pages. The book will be published by the international art book publisher Distanz.
Help us finance the printing of our edition and capture this piece of history in a high-quality book.

The publication conveys our art projects on an aesthetic and content level in order to make them accessible in the long term. Through the first-time compilation of all our works, connections between the different series of works are drawn.
The book is for everyone who is curious about our work, all robot lovers who want to have the whole family in a compact format, and everyone who wants to get a deeper insight into our work of the last ten years.

You support the creation of the book and thus us and our artistic career. Here's to the next 10 years ;)
With the book you get a deeper insight into our technology-based work with numerous images and exciting texts.

We put the entire proceeds into the printing costs of the first edition. Ideally, we would like to print 600 books - for our whole crowd ;)
We want to print the 160-page publication in Germany on high-quality, environmentally friendly paper. It should get a binding that opens super flat and where the craftsmanship details are visible, like in our work: a Swiss brochure as open thread stitching with softcover. Pre-order the book and make the production possible!
