Nicolas Jaar releases new multi-project book

Network is 336 pages of innovation from the young producer

Nicolas Jaar has just issued a new book titled Network, which will publish through Printed Matter and his label Other People.

The piece was designed by Jena Myung and Maziyar Pahlevan, with 336 pages charting Jaar's latest multi-phase project. The production took the form of a "semi-fictitious network of interlocking radio stations build around chance operations".

Jaar's Network will also include essays by him and his team, exclusive poster artwork to pair with 111 Other People radio shows and transcripts from each episode.

Printed Matter elaborates on the collection: "In its form and content, Network gives theoretical consideration to the inherent political possibilities of radio broadcast. The contributed texts and transcribed radio-chatter that filter through the book offer ways of resistance against entrenched power-structures".

Nicolas Jaar's Network is currently available for pre-order and will be issued on March 27.
