- A Harvested Glossary for Social Justice in Arts Education and Beyond
convened by Michelle Teran, Ali Şahin, Kari Robertson, Pablo Lerma
"Wor(l)ding: A Harvested Glossary for Social Justice in Arts Education and Beyond is a glossary of references harvested from discourses of equity, diversity, inclusivity, social justice, and social practices, not only in an arts edu cation context, but also as part of broader, systemic urgencies.
Words are contextualised through a praxis of referencing the many writers, thinkers, artists, and creators who have deeply engaged with, or even coined, the terms in this publi cation. Multiple interconnected struggles are interwoven through and within the voices that are present in this glossary. This approach acknowledges that we already have all the tools and words we need; the work is not to innovate or invent, but to amplify and connect.
Wor(l)ding emerges in a time of institutional cultures of austerity, against a global backdrop of rising fascism in the Global North and horrific imperialist, neocolonial violence (in Congo, Gaza, Sudan, Tigray, and many other places). At moments such as these, it is vital to take stock of where we are, and to share what tools, allies, and words we have."

- Zamotka
compiled by Freefilmers
"Zamotka is a kind of wrap made by spreading hummus on lavash flatbread and adding toppings of your liking, which was popularised by Mariupol’s underground creative scene in 2017–2018.
It is also the name given to a self-published zine that explores grassroots food practices, communal dining, food related trauma caused by the war and its social and personal dimensions in the context of Mariupol’s devastation. To honour this legendary wrap and personal memories of the city, Freefilmers have compiled a series of visual and textual contributions in Zamotka."
Nychka Lishchynska: literary editing of the zine, text project coordination, interviews. Sashko Protiah: coordination, project management. Natasha Tseliuba: art and photo project coordination, design, zine layout. Concept and implementation: Freefilmers Published January 2024

Rikimbili: une étude sur la désobéissance technologique et quelques formes de réinvention
"Quand nous acceptons le critère bourgeois qui sanctionne la nécessité comme indigne et celui qui exprime ses besoins comme faible et vulgaire, nous participons à la réduction systématique de la créativité et de la liberté qui pourrait se traduire dans la culture contemporaine." (Ernesto Oroza)
“PLOUGHSHARES AS TECHNOLOGICAL DISOBEDIENCE (CUBA)
Cite du design is a broad church. Whilst hordes of courtiers flocked around the Minister like starlings at sunset, copies of a subversive new book, by Ernesto Oroza, were being distributed by Cite’s publications team. Rikimbili – “a study of technological disobedience and other forms of re-invention” – describes how Cubans have adapted and recycled industrial objects during fifty years of US sanctions. The book’s title, Rikimbili, is named after a two-wheeled vehicle that started its life as a bicycle. The book is subversive because, for me anyway, it describes the kind of design we’ll be doing in the coming age of scarcity industrialism (a phrase of John Michael Greer). Design shows filled with shiny objects, by contrast, are best perceived as historical events about a pardigm that has passed. Write direct to obtain your copy of Rikimbili to: emilie.chabert at citedudesign dot com.” (John Thackara)

Archiving Activism in the Digital Age
Edited by Daniele Salerno and Ann Rigney
"The archiving of social movements has long contributed to their cultural impact. Given the wide availability of digital tools for the making and storing of records, ‘autonomous’ archiving is today becoming a significant part of the activist toolkit itself. In parallel, professional archiving has undergone significant change, leading to more participatory and community-based practices that belie the idea of ‘the Archive’ as an institution merely serving the interests of the state.
This collection brings together academics, archivists, and activists to explore some of the many new sites where activist archives are being produced at the present time. With case studies ranging between Turkey, Afghanistan, the UK, Spain, the Netherlands, and the US, it offers new insights into the opportunities and challenges posed by digitization as well as into the tensions between autonomy and long-term sustainability. It shows above all the potential of archives to become sites of renewed critical engagement."
