Supernaturalis
Buch- und Archivgestaltung zum Thema Magisches Denken
Description
Why does magical thinking still persist despite our seemingly enlightened world?
Supernaturalis sheds light on the fascinating and often irrational side of our thinking that shapes us all. Through rituals, lucky charms, amulets from different cultures, as well as unusual archival finds and anecdotes, this human irrationality is expressed both in content and design. How can these irrational ways of thinking be explained? Is magical thinking even necessary, and how can we use it to our advantage?
The small book of curiosities invites readers to be captivated by the fascination of the inconspicuous. Accompanying the book, the expandable archive on Instagram offers a constantly growing collection and staging of contemporary lucky charms, allowing readers to question and exchange views on their own magical thinking.
