Jan Jelinek, Farben, Gramm and The Exposures
This book introduced information about German electronic musician 'Jan Jelinek' and his musical worldview, while at the same
time trying to reinterpret his musical rhythm and melody in typography from the perspective of a graphic designer.
The first time I saw his music was at a record store in Mangwon-dong in September 2020. It was my first time to see a lot of electronic music
albums that stimulate my curiosity at the place where a lot of LPs were displayed along with a space where minimal techno music
flows. Among the various LPs that maximize the music atmosphere in the album, including distorted images, simple color-blocking
layout, and typographic design, my favorite album was Jan Jelineck's debut album "Personal Rock."
Ever since I came across this
album, I have been completely fascinated by his musical worldview, and through this short book I have challenged myself to visually
reinterpret the unique atmosphere, rhythm and tempo of his music.
