KiSS - Kinetics in Sound & Space: This acronym stands for the research group founded in 2019 by the partner universities HfMT Hamburg and HAW Hamburg under the direction of Prof. Dr. Georg Hajdu and Prof. Thomas Görne. As the name suggests, the focus of the research group was the examination of the dynamics of spatial sounds and sound spaces.
To enhance the dynamic nature of the research presented in the book, we developed a design concept centered around the concepts of contrast and movement. We recognized that presenting such a dynamic topic in a static medium would create an inherent contrast, and we wanted to emphasize this contrast through our design. The cover features two contrasting designs with switching colors, while the entire book uses only two contrasting Pantone colors (neon green and purple) and black, including all images and graphics. Our design approach not only reflects the research content of the book but also represents our own artistic research on spatial sound and sound space.
