Project Description

How can we produce publications collectively? And how does this not only transform our modes of production, but also our understandings of how we can world our worlds? How can we practice publishing from the middle of communities of practice, always in flux? For a couple of years we've been running CC (Creative Crowds), a shared server to learn and explore how experimental design tools can be shared with a network of trusted peers, which has grown into a place for us to extend our curiousities in experimenting with collective publishing workflows. At the centre is a question about "who" our tools and practices are tangled with and how we navigate these relations. During our residency at the D*sign Week 2025, we will take care of these questions, explore turns for CC to take and consider modes of invitation. The circulations desk is a place where we want to dive into this all with those who want to learn together through circulating their own curiosities, practices and knowledge. It will be open on Friday and Saturday from 14:00-17:00, to meet and con-figure things out :)!
