Presentation and book signing with Michael Stipe in Rome.

8 Oct. Rome's MAXXI presents Our Interference Times: a visual record by Michael Stipe with Douglas Coupland on Tuesday 8 October from 19.30-21.00.

The event, followed by a book signing, will see Stipe present his book which is described by MAXXI as alternating "visual records of the past with traces of a new and developing memory", drawn from the vast archive of photos taken by the former REM frontman.

Our Interference Times: a visual record is the second in a series of books presenting the versatile artistic personality of Michael Stipe who, together with the writer and artist Douglas Coupland, investigates how analogue culture interacts with the digital world.
