The SWARMS
In the light of their structural assets
Revolutions are built in collectivity.
What is it to be in the position of publishers in period of conflict ?
Assuming a collective position within the group, for the good of the group ?
Somehow manufacturing conditions of urgency in an evironement of relative safety can highlight a certain sense of respect for the labours of urgency that we are archiving.
The "Swarms" were the result of three intensive seesions, from each of which a fully wrapped up publication had to come out.
Using the slow reading method we have read several texts as a group. We have collected annotations, additional information and imagery on an Etherpad. Afterwards, we have collectively revised the collected content, added a glossary, styled it with CSS - designed a cover and designed the overall appearance of it. We have converted it to a print layout using the <a href="#ether2html">Ether2HTML</a> and <a href="#web2print">Web2Print</a> methods, and printed out this material as booklets, which we have named: SWARM 1, 2 & 3.
In the light of their structural assests, parts of these Swarms were sprinkled all around this website as bits of conversation and collective writing that have accompagnied us all along the process — a handfull of unreferenced snippets from a lot of different places. This work is an assemblage, it contains carbage from multiple writers and speakers — Carbage being bits of leftover cloth that tailors keep for future reuse.
Swarm 01 "We have a USB full of documents, is the outcome of the annotated reading of "Archive Fever" By Jacques Derrida.
Swarm 02 "Parasites", is the cross reading of 'A Communication Primer ›, by Ray & Charles Eames, and "Rat’s Meal/cascades, by Michel Serres"
Swarm 03 "Copora Viva" revolved around "The Corpse Bride: Thinking with Nigredo" by Reza Negarestani.
