Patina
Field Editorial
Year 2024
”Patina” an editorial project about collecting; a wunderkammer that collects, conserves and displays
fascinating entities. Subtracted and enhanced by accumulation, they lose their nature as goods, acquire
new spatial and temporal coordinates, enter into a relationship with each other. They acquire a new
patina.
Issue N°3 is about COLLECTING SOUNDS as a means of survival, a way of holding on to records that may no longer exist, as once a sound is gone, it is gone forever. Once moving entities, sounds are here acquired, organised and stored.

Two readings: 'Side A' and 'Side B'.
Both contain four articles, each containing a different collection story.
The reading aims to be chaotic: the eye bounces from one side of the magazine to the other as it would do with shelves full of objects

Wunderkammer
(German, ‘wonder chamber’)
By the end of the 16th century the term was virtually synonymous with Kunstkammer. However, it was originally used in mid-century to describe a room containing a private collection of rare natural history specimens such as corals, but above all curiosities such as mandrakes, misshapen antlers, or narwhal tusks. Wunderkammern were predecessors of natural history museums.
