Zusammenfassung:"The Illusion of Speed. Skeleton screens are used in modern web applications to display ‘mockups’ of text, images or other content elements while the application is loading. The idea is to reduce ‘cognitive load’ by creating an anticipation of what is to come and an impression of the app loading faster than it actually does" (blurb on Lulu). Gregor Weichbrodt’s Loading Book transfers the visual representation of this concept back to the printed page by creating a skeleton of a book’s print area, showing the pages, paragraphs, and lines as well as the front matter, heading, and blurb on the back cover with stylized gray lines. On the cover, Weichbrodt draws on a second interface design of transitory temporality: the spinner, which is usually animated on the web. Both symbols are placeholders of the future that visually shape the moment of imminent change as a constant transition. What looks like an erasure of a given book is in fact generated by a Python script for a potential book yet to be written or found.
