The local knowledge
In Ubik, a moratorium preserves people in half-life, allowing limited contact with those who would otherwise be lost. Beloved Brethren is associated with Ella Runciter and the novel’s unsettling uncertainty about life, death and experience. Its businesslike presentation makes an extraordinary service feel almost routine.
Our interpretation
An hourglass and pulse-like lines give this imagined business plaque the cool, reassuring appearance of a futuristic institution.
