File:Graziano Mars Medak Pirate Care Acts Against the Criminalization of Solidarity 2025.epub
- Pirate Care
- Acts Against the Criminalization of Solidarity
by Valeria Graziano, Marcell Mars and Tomislav Medak
'In many places around the world, the freedom to simply care for one another is under attack by the powerful, and acts of solidarity are being made illegal. In a moment of struggle defined by the rollback of social welfare programs, the criminalisation of migration, and the right-wing clampdown on bodily autonomy, radical networks of care are fighting back.
From volunteer rescue boats in the Mediterranean to underground labs for preparing gender-affirming hormones, from the sharing of copyrighted health knowledge to the provision of abortion and contraception, people are reclaiming the means to care for one another in defiance of a system that devalues and exploits the labour of care.
Against atomised despair, Pirate Care shows that fighting back isn't only about legal and legislative changes but also about organizing, direct action, and disobedient care.'
'Putting the words pirate and care together already produces a spark of excitement, asking us to imagine how we are going to make the world together. A world in which what are often separate practices, and languages about practices, can come together. Where abolition, hacking, the commons, queerness and repair are connected. Where as good feminists we concern ourselves with the work and play that sustains us, in and against the empires of extraction. A most nourishing and encouraging little book'
- - McKenzie Wark, author of A Hacker Manifesto and Capital is Dead
'In times of rampant institutionalized cruelty and neglect, and as we witness the increasing commodification, weaponization and criminalization of care, this inspiring and stimulating collection celebrates care’s uncompromising radicality – from anonymous everyday solidarity to bold acts of resistance in the face of ruthless repression. Pirate Care is a breath of fiery courage against the suffocation of hope'

File:Infrastructure Aesthetics 2024.pdf
- Infrastructure Aesthetics
Edited by Solveig Daugaard, Cecilie Ullerup Schmidt and Frederik Tygstrup
"An upsurge in artworks negotiating the conditions of their own production, distribution, and reception has called attention to the infrastructural relations that shape the art world but have long been understudied. In response, this book introduces the concept of infrastructure aesthetics into the study of culture.
The concept is drawn from infrastructure studies, media theory, and aesthetic theory. This volume develops it further, addressing:
- the analytical challenge of working with works that blur the boundaries between art and infrastructure, both historically and in the present,
- the aesthetic problem of assessing artistic forms that operate on an infrastructural level, and
- the politics of artistic agency on a social level, beyond the work's content or message.
As the relation between artworks and their institutional and social settings becomes infrastructural in nature, we need to move beyond the reductive division of the study of artworks into production, articulation, and reception. This book provides its readers with an innovative conceptual toolbox designed for precisely this task, as well as a forceful set of exemplary case studies applying the concepts in theory and practice."

File:Zamotka zine 2024.pdf
- 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)
