A Line Which Forms a Volume #8

'A Line Which Forms a Volume' is a critical reader and symposium of graphic design-led research that is edited, written, designed and published by participants of the MA Graphic Media Design (MAGMD) course at the London College of Communication (LCC).

Each year a different cohort of students work on the title.

The latest issue explores the concept of ‘refraction’ as a means of facilitating and understanding design, research, and collaboration – traversing between themes such as the affinity between design and choreographic practices, and the multifaceted nature of having a conversation. As designers and researchers, we use the lens of refraction to expand beyond institutional frames and their restrictions, embracing the changes and shifts in our understanding of graphic design, design education, and design discourse – focusing on how knowledge and experiences can be fragmented and redirected for greater understanding.
