Thoughts on publishing and editorial design matters

Premise

During the 5-day workshop we will examine the possibilities of self-destruction in relation to cross-media publishing.

Modes of production: Discussion, sketching & prototyping, paired with hands-on exercises (crash course: terminal, crash course: python & scrape yourself).

Goals for this week

Make a publication or a prototype of a publication that has a build in expiration date (optimally the date of the end presentation, Friday February 12th). The publication in this context can live online or/and offline. It can be printed matter, e-pub, a performance, an object or an audio file, as long it’s informed by technology in some extend.
