Read-in is a self-organized collective that experiments with the political, material, and physical implications of collective reading and the situatedness of any kind of reading activity. Some of the formats that Read-in experiments include are: going door-to-door and requesting neighbours to host a group reading session (Read-in Classic); workshops which focus on the links between reading and memorizing and experiments with memorizing collectively; and BookshelfResearch, for which Read-in examines specific private or public libraries according to categories such as gender, nationality, materiality, resulting in a statistical breakdown of inclusions and omissions.

Bibliotecha is a framework to facilitate the local distribution of digital publications within a small community. It relies on a microcomputer running open-source software to serve books over a local wifi hotspot. Using the browser to connect to the library one can retrieve or donate texts. Bibliotecha proposes an alternative model of distribution of digital texts that allows specific communities to form and share their own collections.


H&D IS AN INITIATIVE THAT BRINGS TWO PROFESSIONS CLOSER TO EACH OTHER IN ORDER TO DEVELOP A COMMON VOCABULARY AND COLLECTIVE CONCEPTS.
