SAFT - the modular book, is an unconventional editorial project. At the same time, it is a continuous heteroclite book as well as a potential experimental installation. While it weighs only 500gr its size must be measured in square meters.



The book consists of a collection of independent parts, of a series of sections of the everyday. Each section is dedicated to a specific phenomenon or topic, which has been investigated through an approach of the millimetrically exact, in a state of affairs where everything is taken as a potential resource for something new, without regard for where it might come from.



Each of its coloured sections is identified by its title as well as by a number, which declares its part of a series, but beyond the arithmetic logic of one number after another, of one issue after another. There exists neither predetermined sequence nor logical order inside the collection — only the possibility of continuous combinations.



In SAFT there are no models to be followed, no methodology to rely on, just invitations to encounter the richness of the world, to go beyond the lulling tranquility of the already known in order to relish on the luxury, which resides even in the simplest things. Since every invention produces new connections, SAFT is some sort of travel device, where each connection made potentially leads to a new world.



SAFT the modular book recollects the first nine issues of SAFTzine as well as five features written by Dario Borso, Luigi Prestinenza Puglisi, Franco Raggi, Franco Toselli, Maurizio Vogliazzo and a precious gift by Lisa Ponti.



As a matter of fact, there is not one Saft but many.
