  • narrative: A day-long conversation and workshop on cross-reading methods developed by students of XPUB. The conversation is facilitated and documented thanks to a script, as well as (sound) recorded and broadcasted.

1.
notes/observation/traces:
"XPUB studio": A large room in a modern school building; individual desks with computers and monitors; opening and closing time; students and tutors of XPUB
"XPUB living room": A circular arrangement of two red and one green sofa; a makeshift coffee table; an eclectic assemblage of objects dismissed from their respective functions a long time ago (air pump, dead cactus, mouldy cup, empty mustard jar, etc.) and organically accumulating as time and students pass by.

The contrasting nature of the "XPUB studio" and the "XPUB living room" gives meaning to the two space's relation: a space of exchange at the heart of the room emerging from the need for sociability; a space where traces left by individuals persist in contrast to individual desks that are emptied and restored at the end of each school year.

gesture: (dis)placed in an empty room, the familiar arrangement becomes a stage (reenactment)— awareness prompted by the mic, the script and other recording materials. Repurpose an old setting, turning a private space into a space of publication.

"Somewhere on the highway, publishing" (thesis)
  • A thesis investigating collective practices of graphic design and self-organisation tools made by self-organised groups with a publishing practice.
  • Opens up to the project (in which excerpts of the thesis are featured)

"To whom it may affect" (project)
  • Project extending the thesis research to a series of letters addressed to 4 individuals concerned with collective processes leading to publishing. The letters describes and analyse past "publishing situations", gives an account of the tools originating from these encountered situations and proposes a series of instructions, methods, exercises to an audience of designers, editors, publishers (or others) concerned with questions around collectivity.
