Echoes from a Perpetual Stew

EDITION2022THE CRITICAL INQUIRY LAB
“A perpetual stew, also known as forever soup, [...] is a pot into which whatever one can find is placed and cooked. The pot is never or rarely emptied all the way, and ingredients and liquid are replenished as necessary. [...] Foods prepared in a perpetual stew have been described as being flavorful due to the manner in which the ingredients blend together, in which the flavor may improve with age.”

We designed and edited this book collection of texts from our class: the Critical Inquiry Lab. Like a perpetual stew, we imagined the editorial texts as several voices that intertwine in the layout. The index classifies the texts based on entry words like the various ingredients that compose our graduate program.
