The first physical release of Collisions.cc takes the form of a limited 12″ vinyl with a foldable 24×36″ poster. The edition features an original orchestral composition by Beni Brachtel, created for Ersan Mondtag’s installation Monument eines unbekannten Menschen in the German Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale, 2024.
The design employs an early version of Hagel Regular, a contemporary serif typeface by scifipoetry, to set the textual elements of the sleeve and poster. The typeface’s sharp detailing and calm rhythm complement the layered themes of memory, architecture, and sound that shape the installation.
