Jack Henrie Fisher

works within, across, against a range of technical platforms and institutional spaces. His reseach and practice is focused on the political mediation of language and images as graphic design.

He is a partner, with Alan Smart, in Other Forms: an office for design and publishing. Jack co-edits, designs, and publishes the extra-disciplinary multi-generic design journal Counter-Signals. Issue 5, Systems and their Discontents, is now available, here, and at bookstores and infoshops all over the place.

Jack also produces, with Gene Booth, a fanzine and concept blog about constitutional intersections of writing and music: Dum Ditty Dum. Expositions of spirals on album covers and record labels, as the spirals of capitalism versus the spirals of the black jazz trajectory to emancipation, is out now.

Jack is an associate professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where he teaches classes on typography, publishing, the internet, politics, and other things. Jack is currently at work on a long-form illustrated history on the formal antagonism of the book thing with its commodity form. Also: historic and constitutive visibilities of the revolutionary subject, always to come.
