Words for the Future - The Re-Publishing Project

What does it mean to re-publish something? How to engage with new publics? And how to drive potential new meanings by departing from specific, already defined paths? We've been asked to re-work the original 10 essays and contributions previously collected in Words for the Future by Nienke Scholts, by unfolding the meanings deriving from the process of re-publishing.

Wor(l)ds for the Future – Republishing Tool Kit for an Imaginary Atlas

Words have the power to shape reality. Wor(l)ds for the Future is a set of map-making tools to re-imagine and collect wor(l)ds, and to re-publish an everchanging atlas. We invite you to delve into the materials and traverse the texts in any way you desire: by cutting and pasting the printed matter, or by unravelling the texts online. The choice is yours. You can reconstruct images and reinterpret words to create Wor(l)ds for the Future.

This project is a republication of Words for the Future (2018), a multivoiced series of ten booklets. In the 2020 version, we reinterpreted the original material through methods such as annotating and prototyping in Python (a coding language we used to analyse text as texture). The ten booklets were cross-examined and mapped in order to find interconnections and links.
