INCITE: Digital Arts and Activism
I've been so excited for this book to come out, and it's finally ready! It's a gorgeous risograph-printed collection of contributions by a number of artists. Mine focuses on the wonderful character designs that June Hornby made for Cis Penance, and highlights three key moments from the interactive conversations with trans people. Details below...
INCITE: Digital Art & Activism is a collaborative artist book featuring creative responses from artists, scholars and activists connected through the Digital Art and Activism Network, Edited by Joseph DeLappe (Abertay University) and Laura Leuzzi (Robert Gordon University).
Each contributor was asked to create a three-page chapter, in an effort to gather the disparate yet connected activism, practices and scholarship as represented by those involved in the network. Peacock & the worm Risograph Technician Neil Corall interpreted their individual submissions for the Risograph and designed the book’s overall layout, bringing together the diverse contributions into a cohesive whole, while maintaining their distinctive identities.
INCITE: Digital Art and Activism features contributions by B.D. Owens, Donna Holford-Lovell, Elaine Shemilt, Ellie Harrison, Emile Shemilt, Eve Mosher, Gair Dunlop, Giulia Casalini, Hadi Mehrpouya & Duncan Nicoll, Iliyana Nedkova, John Butler, Jon Blackwood, Joseph DeLappe, Laura Leuzzi, Maja Zećo, Malath Abbas, Martin Zeilinger, Moza Almatrooshi, Niya B, Tom De Majo (Biome Collective), Va-Bene Elikem Fiatsi, Zoyander Street.
