Abstract
Rybczyński’s New Book shows simultaneously what is occurring in 9 connected points of view of a place. What is supposed to be an everyday life of a man getting a new book is turned into a complex series of stories of different people. New Book expands the human limits of space and diverts from narrating solely about one main character.
This pictogram shows the carefully choreographed actions of the people. The repeated movements of different people create a sense of regularity. The climax of the work occurs when a small accident happens to people at all the nine points at the same time.
