MORE INFO


"Tangible things are fast disappearing. Information that was once stored on paper is now stored digitally. The push and pull between paper, and its reassuring qualities is heightened in our increasingly transient society." - Savinder Bual, 9 Notes

In this workshop, we will use conductive ink to make an interactive zine that takes a digital memory from our phones and places them into the world around us, through paper, projections and sound.

Things we could think about in the workshop:

  • do our digital memories become more emotive when they're not accessed through screen-based touch?

  • how does it feel to be so selective when we have access to such an abundance of media on our devices?

  • how does it feel to project, play out loud, exhibit our personal media?

About the facilitator:

I'm Lil! I moved to Glasgow in November 2022. I live for building creative projects with other people. Weaving threads of connection is my jam. I've been doing this through a pretty fluid of publishing that mixes workshops, print and audio, all via my indie press, No Bindings. When I'm not doing that, I work at Glasgow Women's Library facilitating the Readers of Colour sessions amongst other programmes and activities!

Accessibility:

This event is open to BPOC only.

There will be 8 attendees maximum, and the event will feature comfort breaks. During this event, attendees will participate in: small group discussions, whole group discussions, hands on activities, sharing work that has been created in the workshop, film clips, sound/music.
