Last Wednesday, my fellow XPUB1 classmates and me wrapped up the trimester with a collective folding, binding, and paginating party to make A_Mazing Machine[s]: Wordscapes to Liberate Language, the printed publication of our Special Issue 28!

My first few months at @xpub have been incredible. I am so proud of my classmates, the work we did together, and what we learned. I am also very grateful to our tutors, who have been super kind and inspiring!

All information, plus a PDF of the printed version, made with WeasyPrint is available on this Eleventy website we created to share all the things that we explored. It mirrors our incredible, legendary wiki. It was very interesting and insightful, so I published my notes about Using MediaWiki as a CMS for Eleventy.

Radio WORM and XPUB invite you to A_Mazing_Machine[s] : Wordscapes To Liberate Language, an evening of compositional experimentation at WORM UBIK on Wednesday 19 November 3:30-8pm.

For the past two months, first-year students from the Piet Zwart Institute's Experimental Publishing Master (XPUB) have been building writing machines—deconstructing, reassembling, and subverting original inputs.

As well as documenting their explorations on their weekly Radio WORM show (Mondays 10:00-11:00), they now invite you to witness their growing collection of ‘machines’ in person: drop by to discover cut-ups and scripts, roam through automated writing and audio assemblages, and witness experiments moving past the everyday use of language.

Join us to venture through the ambiguous nature of language and explore it as a medium for meaning-making! Entry is free, more info at worm.org
