Excited to explore further the human-software interaction, experiment with creative coding, and publish things that play with both, digital and physical.

Simon asked us to create some cards for the bootleg library. So, here is an audio recording of the "recording" card. Scan the QR code to hear it :)
In this Special Issue, we will start by considering the word "library" as a verb; actions that sustain the production, collection and distribution of texts. We will question indexical attitudes that lean towards universalism and search for proposals for how we "library" our particular collection.

LIFE BEFORE XPUB

Hoi! My name is Boyana [Бояна], and I come from Bulgaria. Child of the 80s. My work life before XPUB was centered around digital communications, branding, creative concepts, and content creation. I do my best to help sustainable businesses and civic organizations do good by expanding their message online and thus connecting with real people in a community-focused space. Excited to explore further the human-software interaction, experiment with creative coding, and publish things that play with both, digital and physical. Outside of that, I am into hiking, sailing, and cycling (thanks, Rotterdam!).

LIFE DURING XPUB

Saw a random poster on the street that said "Life is randomness" so here you'll find random stuff from my new life as one of six breadcubies.

SPECIAL ISSUES

During our first year, we will explore, work collaboratively and publish three Special Issues. Each issue will be tackling a different topic (or an issue).

SPECIAL ISSUE 19

In this Special Issue, we will start by considering the word "library" as a verb; actions that sustain the production, collection and distribution of texts. We will question indexical attitudes that lean towards universalism and search for proposals for how we "library" our particular collection.

How are texts made new? How to make a collection understandable to others? What are the access points to the collection, and where do readers and writers cross paths?

SPECIAL ISSUE 20

In this SI we will be looking at rituals and their overlap with video games as a way to explore "forbidden" or otherwise lost knowledge erased by oppressive systems (e.g. witch hunts). Understanding (video) games and rituals as gateways to alternative ways of relating to Nature, each other and (re)production of life, labour, etc, we will play together by writing fanfiction and spells, developing rituals, analysing and creating games together. Candles, tarot cards and joysticks... ready, go!

SPECIAL ISSUE 21

TTY (WORKING TITLE): This issue will start from a single technical object: a teletype machine. The teletype is the meeting point between typewriters and computer interfaces, a first automated translator of letters into bits. Equipped with a keyboard, a transmitter and a punchcard read-writer, it is a historical link between early transmission technology such as the telegraph and the Internet of today.

PROTOTYPING

During our first year, we are going to explore different programming languages, tools and methods that would allow us to develop initial software prototypes, and review, revise and enhance them.

SOFTWARE

Here is a list of the software mentioned throughout the course.

METHODS

The Reading, Writing, and Research Methodologies course is tailored towards (further) developing research methods within the first year of our Master. By establishing a solid foundation of research skills, it will eventually prepare us for our research in the second year.

W-H-W Model

New concepts & theories

WORKSHOPS

Here you'll find a brief description of all workshops that I will attend during the next two years.

SKILLS

Here I'm reflecting on all the station skills classes that I'll be attending during the master.

STUDIO

Random moments from our life at the XPUB Studio.
