Edition of 50.
"Rain/fall encapsulates the ephemeral but universal effects of the weather. An iPad app and a print-on-demand book accompany the artists' book you hold in your hands. The digital version, accessible at www.rainfallbook.com, offers an alternative reading experience through animation and live access to geographic location and weather databases. With the book, the reader can choose their current local weather condition on the volvelle at the front of the book then turn the volvelle on each page to the matching icon to read the corresponding poem"--Colophon.
Rain/fall is part of the Expanded Artists' Books initiative at the Center for Book and Paper Arts at Columbia College Chicago, supported in part by an Arts in Media grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Additional funding has been provided by the Kahle/Austin Foundation and Feigenbaum Nii Foundation. Designed and written by Denise Bookwalter and Meg Mitchell. Text and image letterpress printed on Legion Bamboo paper in Tallahassee, Florida.
Rain/fall is issued in an archival flat box covered in red cloth and printed on the cover of the box are 3 volvelle-shaped circles.
Rare Book copy: No. 28.
