This volume includes works created from around 2023 to 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e--\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Hidden Fortress\" compiles the creative activities of publisher\/graphic designer Tim Coghlan, recorded in 59 notebooks over 20 years (2006-2026). The first notebook, started in 2006, was filled with drawings, collages, and photographs. However, as time passed, his interest shifted from \"drawing\" to \"combining collected images.\" Eventually, he began creating zines and books that compiled collected photographs and images, which led to the founding of Knowledge Editions in 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn Tuesday, August 8, 2017, at 7:50 AM, he launched \"930 Archive.\" This is an archival project that continuously collects images from the internet daily, saving them under the themes of \"impact\" and \"the effects of events.\" The process of collecting, categorizing, and preserving these images greatly influenced his notebook production from 2019 onwards. Materials gathered from books, comics, and newspapers, among others, formed many of the works within the notebooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trial and error and ideas accumulated in these 59 notebooks ultimately led to \"Hidden Fortress.\" Key themes include \"what is impact?\" and \"the power of collected images.\" Cultural influences such as heavy metal, films, and comics, which have impacted Tim since he was six years old, are treated as important references in his work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn essence, \"Hidden Fortress\" is the culmination of Tim Coghlan's 20 years of \"collecting,\" \"recording,\" and \"combining images,\" and an attempt to reveal his personal creative world, which is usually kept private.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e258 pages \/ 210 x 297mm \/ Soft Cover \/ Limited Edition of 50\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTim Coghlan: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dotheknowledge\/\"\u003ewww.instagram.com\/dotheknowledge\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKnowledge Editions: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/knowledge_editions\/\"\u003ewww.instagram.com\/knowledge_editions\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knowledge Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52101495619886,"sku":null,"price":3000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0912\/9200\/8750\/files\/HIDDENFORTRESSVOL2_01.jpg?v=1779872132","url":"https:\/\/ccommunee.com\/en\/products\/hidden-fortress-vol-2-tim-coghlan","provider":"commune","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
