What is it?

A project of 3 months investigating through pen plotting the intersection between algorithms, obsolete media and community building in a series of 3 publications that are each accompanied by a release event at De Boog and a radio show at Radio WORM. It is a collaborataion with Alessia and Victor and will run from September to November of 2024.

Why make it?

Alessia and Victor and I have been experimenting with pen plotters over the past few months, establishing an experimental practise and finding these machines to be inviting for community building efforts. WORM / Amarte now has an open call with the theme 'algorithms' that aligns with our interests, and seems to allow for further investigation into our established and new methodologies alike. In a conversation about 'algorithms', it is important to consider the ecological aspects obsolete media (like pen plotters) confront us with, as well as the curious, performative and physical experience they provide.

Previous practice

At XPUB, we have been experimenting with Pen plotters a whole bunch, investigating their multiplicity. For example:
* User:Alessia/Pen_plotter_magic 
* User:ØverLørd/Complot
* User:Thijshijsijsjss/Pen_Plotting_Panache

Also, we have helped organise several events dedicated to pen plotters:
* A Pen Plotting Party in Rotterdam, 2024-02-12. Website, photo documentation, video documentation.
* A Pen Plotting Party in Brussels, 2024-05-04, in collaboration wtih OSP. website.

Aditionally, we have experience with Radio WORM through SI22.

Relation to a wider context

Some of the wider context has already been discussed (including the community we are building around pen plotters). Additionally, there is WORM's community building efforts, and their support for independent creators.

The open call we are applying to consists of 4 projects. Publishing (which we are applying to), exhibition, experimental performance and club night concept.
