The talk explores the intersection between writing and artisanal publishing, from the perspective of someone who experiences both processes. Through concrete examples of risography, screen printing, and artisanal bookbinding, we will examine how the act of publishing can be an integral part of the creative process, not just the final result. We will reflect on the value of collaborative work in the creation of books and fanzines, and how the artisanal process allows us to experiment with other ways of sharing ideas and artistic processes. This is an invitation to rethink publishing as a resource for amplifying ideas and building community.
