draft

The students of the Master Media Design: Experimental Publishing from the Piet Zwart Institute will experiment with scanned materials from the archive of the Poortgebouw (a formerly squatted cultural center in South of Rotterdam). While taking different approaches of typography, layout and folding, the goal of the zin camp session, is to build a working prototype of a poster/zine. This will be included into the final publication, the students are currently working on, called "A chair, a table and a bed". The Experimental Publishing department would like to invite you to join their work in progress, and give a sneak peak into their book about the Poortgebouw. It will be lauched on the 7th of December 2017.
