I am happy to announce two upcoming exhibitions that will include books from Onomasticon. A selection of books will be on display at the Photographic Resource center at Boston University as well as the Chicago Cultural Center, Chicago Rooms. I have added the exhibitions + collections page to share information about exhibitions that include Onomasticon. Additionally I have started a list of the the subscribers/collections that are acquiring Onomasticon.

Unfortunately I have had to make an adjustment to the additional shipping costs for international orders. Shipping costs have exceeded my estimates from the time the project was announced over a year ago. These new prices are now include on the ordering and subscriptions pages. All subscriptions are the same price, international orders require an additional shipping charge.

New books are on the way.

Book #3, Onomasticon progresses

onom@sticon — Fri, 13 May 2011 20:18:47 +0000

I participated in Photolucida here in Portland last month and unexpectedly debut the newest book prolix to a number of reviewers and participants over the weekend. We were all fortunate to experience the Indie Photobook Library as well. So many fantastic books that represent both the history and resurgence of self publish in the world of photography. I will be submitting onomasticon to the IPL in the coming month.

I have published pages for the first three official books. No more images of maquettes! More to come. Enjoy and keep checking back. *ian

Onomasticon has started & New Website

onom@sticon — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 08:14:00 +0000

The project has begun and so far things are moving along nicely. The first book is slightly behind schedule due to some confusion regarding the archival qualities of some materials.

All the materials have arrived and the first two books are in production. Keep checking back for new images and videos that will document the next 24 months and 26 books that will make up Onomasticon. (be sure to grab the RSS feed to get updates)

Thanks. *ian

The KickStarter fund-raising was successful in acquiring a new subscriber and seeding the project for the new year: See the results here. Over the past few months I have set up my a studio in my new home Portland, Oregon. I have relocated from Chicago in order to teach at Portland State University. Everything is still on track for the first book in the Onomastion series to be delivered in January. I will be preparing to rework this web site so that I can better document the project over the next two year. More updates coming in the next month. Thanks for your support.
