about

This album was constructed by Seaman in Ableton Live


On the title:
Lewin, K. (1936). Principles of Topological Psychology— The purpose of this book is to build a set of constructive concepts based on both experimental investigations and case histories by means of which one can represent psychological reality. These concepts are intended to unify diverse fields of psychology. The concepts are intended to be operational and descriptive.

Field Theory is a psychological theory (more precisely: Topological and vector psychology) which examines patterns of interaction between the individual and the total field, or environment... It was developed by Kurt Lewin, a Gestalt psychologist, in the 1940s.

Once again the packaging design for this one is absolutely beautiful and perfectly in-keeping with the overall concept/theme of the album. We are once again using deluxe GF Smith 540gsm 4-panel letter-press/blind debossed covers with a Buckram emboss finish.
