Refined Practical Work Proposal

Building on the previous proposal, I've decided that my publication will act as a Nietzschean answer to Lucienne Roberts' Good: An Introduction To Ethics In Graphic Design, which instead of educating about morality in graphic design, encourages reader to transcend it.

The publication will be a book, but will avoid the same principles of other books and avoid the modernist principles which are incompatible with the eternal recurrence. A key way of doing this is have the spine on the right, which will mean the reader will appear to be reading the book backwards, giving the impression they're trying to un-learn something. This is important, as Nietzsche's form of nihilism means that destruction is required before creation.

Whereas the methodology of my essay is to look at some of Nietzsche's thoughts and then apply them to the first things first manifesto through practical examples of graphic design, the book will work the opposite way round, using practical examples to try and discredit the manifesto, leaving the reader in a position where Nietzsche's philosophy will find meaning for them. This will then be confirmed by a copy of my dissertation at the end of the book. 

A side-product of this will be that if the book is read with the spine on the left, it will more start with my essay, and then more or less follow the path I took in my research, and so will still have meaning, albeit it not the intended one. This however is itself representative of Nietzsche's theory of the Ubermensch, as those who can't bring themselves to read the book in the correct manner (with the spine to the right) are clearly incapable of transcending tradition and so will be unable to create their own values.

Whilst these are major changes from the previous proposal, the fact that I'll have generated all the content for the publication means it still retains the element of it representing my own will to power through all the content coming directly from my research.
