American Disorientation

American Disorientation is a panoramic viewfinder of the American landscape under climatic and political disorientation. If our disorientation is the one thing that remains reliable, then this publication takes the disorienting effects - and affects - of the American landscape as an opportunity for its reconfiguration. American Disorientation pieces together a collective of views from activists, filmmakers, landscape architects, horticulturalists, curators, and academics from across the Americas, featuring: Abra Lee, Ben Balcom, DEGROWNYC, Dept, Marilyn Machado Mosquera, Mike Gibisser, Neyran Turan, Oficina de Resiliencia Urbana, Roberto Ransom Ruiz, Tania Tovar Torres, and Cruz Garcia and Nathalie Frankowski of WAI Think Tank. Designed in collaboration with PROPS Supply and through funding from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and the Harvard Graduate School of Design.

How do we make sense of the ground beneath us when it feels like it’s in free fall? American Disorientation compiles a collective panorama, presenting varied methodologies, strategies, and processes through which the contemporary American landscape is envisioned, engaged, and transformed.

Two-part folio includes pamphlet screenprint in contact sheet with 35mm projection slides of the American landscape for projection.
