− | ==Zine Camp invitation / open call for participation==
| |
| | | |
− | On the 24-25th of May, WORM will host a 2 day Zine Camp, an open workspace
| |
− | connecting like-minded zinesters and newbies from Rotterdam to
| |
− | national/international zinesters and newbies. The aim is of course to make
| |
− | zines together, but also to provide a space and place to socialize and
| |
− | collaborate in an attempt to discover and foster a growing community of
| |
− | zine-makers in the NL. Everyone is welcome and entrance is free so no
| |
− | excuses! Drop by!
| |
− |
| |
− | Zines are DIY periodicals, traditionally self-published on printed format.
| |
− | They've been published by science, music and soccer fans, political
| |
− | dissenters, activists, or just people who want to share ideas or aspects of
| |
− | their personal life. Most zines are grassroots products of underground,
| |
− | fringe or alternative publishing and distribution and have been largely
| |
− | ignored by mainstream publishing.
| |
− |
| |
− | However, this is by no means restrictive to what a zine can be.
| |
− | Experimentation with form, technical execution, concept, or (ideological)
| |
− | function is more than welcome to open up the question of what constitutes a
| |
− | zine today, i.e audio zine, film zine, super 8 zine, etc.
| |
− |
| |
− | WORM will provide a large, free space, with tables to work on, a photocopy
| |
− | machine, paper, scissors, glue and last but not least a bar and a stage for
| |
− | live performances.
| |
− |
| |
− | Similar to a hacklab or BarCamp, we find it important to keep it loosely
| |
− | organized to allow for self organization and spontaneity, but at the same
| |
− | time provide some kind of structure to see what is possible at the Zine
| |
− | Camp.
| |
− |
| |
− | ==Loose program==
| |
− | Here is our basic skeleton of a program, but keep in mind that this is not
| |
− | a fixed structure and is open to accommodate suggestions and proposals.

| |

| |
− | loose program needing time to prepare and organize please let us know in
