- – — Radio makers, listeners and electromagnetic wave enthusiasts, do you copy? — – -
In the middle of an on-going apocalypse what should be preserved, and what forgotten?

Join us IRL on 7 December in the efforts of scavenging and resurrecting a sonic archive.
It is only a question of time until all will be lost. Lend an ear as we collectively explore,
activate and transmit the archive of Worm community Radio. We must listen closely, we must decide what remains and how we can rebuild upon a fractured past. BYOR (Bring your own Radio).

Become absorbed by a re-imagined reality through an archival deep-dive!
Prepare (with us) for the event - – — and tune in to Radio WORM
on 5 December at 10.00 for further instructions — – -

MODULAR MATTER
by Jian Haake [ohjian]

"MODULAR MATTER is the attempt to re-think desktop publishing through the concept of modular synthesis. The outcome is a tool with several independent and combinable hardware modules, each of them performing a specific operation with an operation-specific physical interface. MODULAR MATTER can be played like an instrument in order to generate unexpected printed outcome. The process of making the tool as well as the unfamiliar experience of using the tool hopefully sparks critical conversations around tool ecologies and helps to break open engrained ways of working."

🫧 Experimental Publishing Graduation Show & Shop 2023 | Making Things Bubblic 🫧 Warm-up!

Across two evenings XPUB (the Experimental Publishing master course at the Piet Zwart Institute) will share their work and research through interviews. Interviews here are interpreted in different ways by each student - they will structure dialogues, discussions and bubbles of thought, mixed with infomercials and sonic material that shares more of our practices. The radio shows are a teaser to invite you to our following graduation show with an opening at Slash Gallery (Worm) on the 29th of June at 6 pm. They are hosted by Ål Nik (Alexandra Nikolova) and Gersande Schellinx.

Join us at radio Worm on:
_Friday 23rd June, 20:00 - 21:00
_Tuesday 27th June, 19:00 - 20:00

"with Clara Gradel, Floor van Meeuwen, Martin Foucaut, Camilo Garcia, Federico Poni, Nami Kim, Euna Lee, Kendal Beynon, Jacopo Lega and Louisa Teichmann

Tap upon the glass and peer into the research projects we are currently working on. From Monday 29th of November until Saturday 4th of December we put ourselves on display in the window of De Buitenboel as an entry point into our think tank. Navigating between a range of technologies, such as wireless radio waves, virtual realities, sensors, ecological and diffractive forms of publishing, web design frameworks, language games, and an ultra-territorial residency; we invite you to gaze inside the tank and float with us. Welcome back to the ecosystem of living thoughts."Photo of one of the window displays. Some quotes have been printed and there is also documentation from ongoing research of the second year students of XPUB.Screenshot of a phone interface displaying a closeup photo of an element of the window installation.
