Blueprint for Counter Education

The 1970 edition of Blueprint for Counter Education was a defining document of the 60s counterculture. Long out-of-print, today a new facsimile edition has been published by Inventory Press—complete with three fold-out posters designed by Marshall Henrichs; original curriculum / handbook / shooting script by noted sociologist Maurice Stein (first Dean of CalArts Critical Studies program) and his collaborator Larry Miller; and a new 64-page booklet with additional materials including an interview with the authors and designer of the 1970 edition, notes on the design by pamphlet designer Adam Michaels of Project Projects, and essays by Paul Cronin and Jeffrey Schnapp, who calls the project "a wholesale attempt to enact a visual turn in the organization of knowledge in the form of a 'highly participative series of art-life games.'"
