Apocalypticotrashecocidocious - Censored 08

Apolline, Clémentine Labrosse

€20.00

« Apocalypticotrashecocidocious », l’édition Censored 08, parle d’écologie et de luttes anticapitalistes, de vivant et d’humilité

Ses recherches, textes et productions artistiques mènent à une conclusion : l’urgente nécessité de faire front commun pour quitter les logiques d’exploitation hyperviolentes envers la terre, les espèces, les femmes, minorités de genre et personnes racisées. Politiser le rapport que nous entretenons à nos territoires mutilés, qu’ils soient urbains ou ruraux. Comprendre comment le capitalisme s’est érigé en culte quasi religieux fondé sur la dépossession des savoirs, le déracinement des émotions, l’anti-spiritualité et l’individualisme. Il est alors question de militances joyeuses et du refus de la fatalité, de relations inter-espèces, de spiritualités noires, d’écologie au quotidien, de culture white trash et de futurs possibles.

Comment penser l’écologie lorsque c’est notre propre mode d’existence qui parasite le vivant ? Qu’apprendre des mammifères marins ou des espèces invertébrées ? Quels arts, récits et spiritualités pour aller au-delà des imaginaires dystopiques féministes et engendrer l’action ? Comment s’organiser collectivement tout en apprenant à rester à sa place et sans hiérarchiser ?

Worms #8 'The Elements Issue'

Clem Macleod

In this special edition, double-cover issue of Worms, we bring you not one, but two cover stars. The  indelible Tyson Yunkaporta and the iconic Anne Waldman adorn both sides of Worms 8 which can also be thought of as ‘The Elements Issue’. It was dreamt up in a dreary and grey August in London, while the rest of the world suffered through the hottest days on record. As we witnessed, and continue to witness, such climate catastrophe, we turned to the literature we love to help us understand, to challenge us, and to offer us some comfort. 

The issue is split into four sections—earth, fire, air and water—but its roots and webs push beyond what we typically think of as ‘the natural’: tales from the kitchen from Rebecca May Johnson and Slutty Cheff, reflections on gardening and colonialism, writer's block and clogged pipes, how to blow up pipelines with Andreas Malm, grief and writing, recovery and nature with Octavia Bright, social mobility with Isabel Waidner, the wide range of issues raised by the underrepresentation of First Nations people in literature with Evelyn Araluen and much, much more. 

We hope that this issue can be a flame of hope, inspiration, or something that simply sustains in such turbulent times.

Featuring 
Tyson Yunkaporta, Isabel Waidner , Jamaica Kincaid, Melissa Broder , Evelyn Araluen, Bruce Pascoe, Octavia Bright, Nora Treatbaby , Nerea Calvillo , Anne Waldman , Alexis Pauline Gumbs , Léuli Eshrāghi, Madeline Cash , Andreas Malm, Rebecca May Johnson

BFTK — Issue 4: On Translation, Transmission & Transposition

Andrew Walsh‐Lister, Matthew Stuart and 2 more

Periodicals €23.00

Bricks from the Kiln is an irregular journal edited by Andrew Lister and Matthew Stuart, sometimes with guest editors, that presents graphic design and typography as disciplines activated by and through other disciplines and lenses such as language, archives, collage, and more. It borrows its title from the glossary notes of Ret Marut’s "Der Ziegelbrenner," which was the ‘size, shape and colour of a brick’, and ran for 13 issues between 1917 and 1921.

The latest installment, "#4: On Translation, Transmission & Transposition," was published as an event (and now) a publication, with events at London College of Communication, Burley Fisher Books & Pig Rock bothy, Socttish National Gallery of Modern Art, and Inga (in November, 2019).

Mousse #90 – The Fiction Issue

Periodicals €16.00

Mousse celebrates its 90th issue with a collectible edition, with a special design and format, entirely focused on fiction.

Bringing together a cohort of writers and artists, Mousse #90 – The Fiction Issue stems from the eponymous Fiction column that has dwelled in our pages for five years, and expands its scope. It was developed together with Rosanna McLaughlin, Skye Arundhati Thomas, and Izabella Scott, who collectively coedited the art and literature quarterly The White Review between 2021 and 2023.

Here you'll find reprints from both Mousse and The White Review as well as new stories and translations we have jointly commissioned. Seven interludes, intended to open up other worlds through images, feature portfolios of drawings by Atelier dell'Errore, Michael E. Smith, Camille Henrot, Michael Landy, Simone Forti, Adelaide Cioni, and Evelyn Taocheng Wang.
