New York Marcel Duchamp , MoMA, Apr 12–Aug 22, 2026. Featuring some 300 artworks, this exhibition marks the first retrospective of the artist’s work in the United States since 1973. Scholarship mining the artist’s famously enigmatic work has flourished in the intervening half-century—as have myths and misconceptions. This exhibition offers a sweeping account of Duchamp’s multifaceted career across all mediums from 1900 to 1968, offering today’s audience the first opportunity to view the full breadth of his creative output. Oslo Bridging the fields of documentary and experimental film and video, No Master Territories: Feminist Worldmaking and the Moving Image offers an expansive, intersectional account of underappreciated encounters between feminism and the moving image. Across a polycentric, global geography, it maps how artists and filmmakers have explored the nexus of gender and power and charts sites at which feminism connects to other struggles for justice. By revisiting the period of the 1970s to 1990s, it aims both to pay homage to the important work that has come before and to respond to the urgencies of the present.

This text can support you when starting a permacomputing collective. It isn’t a strict recipe but more of a loose framework that can be freely modified to suit local tastes and conditions. Many actions are cyclical and can be seen as opportunities to revisit or re-purpose later." Brewing Collectives was initiated by Aymeric Mansoux and Brendan Howell with support from Error 417 Expectation Failed. Text written by anna andrejew, Brendan Howell and Ola Bonati, based on interviews with Ana Meisel (London Permacomputing Club), ArchipiĂ©lago I, Colm O'Neil (Wilderland permacomputing group), crunk and d1 (rotterdam.permacomputing.net), Brendan Howell (Berlin Permacomputing Meet Up), Michal Klodner (Node9), Nancy Mauro-Flude (Autoluminescence Institute), Simon Repp (permacomputing Vienna), and Steve McLaughlin (Philly permacomputing + solar punk meetups at Iffy Books, hosted together with Dave Slinger).

Toot . 2026-2-9 File:Careful A Repertorium on Shadow Library Practice 2025.pdf "Large Language Models have, in a sense, created the ultimate (un)ideal readers for electronic libraries. By treating e-libraries as vast training datasets, algorithmic scraping has become both the fulfilment and the ruin of a core dream in public library culture: that access to books should be free and unlimited for all. AI systems read everything and nothing, at inhuman scale and speed — extracting patterns and selling what they pretend to know as consequence. What once symbolised a democratic promise now risks feeding extractive logics that empty reading of meaning. So, why should we care — and if we do, how can we put that care into practice? The ‘Careful VS Careless’ exhibition centres a new conversation between custodians of radical public libraries, known as ‘ shadow libraries ’. Organised around that conversation are a mixture of symbolic and tactical gestures that help people to think and act carefully in relation to the infrastructures of public knowledge systems." Published on the occasion of Careful vs Careless: Library Custodians and Artificial Readers and Library Making as Practice at distro , Basel, 5–17 November 2025.

Publisher . 2025-11-5 File:Vertical Atlas 2022.pdf "How to navigate the rapidly changing digital geopolitics of the world today? How do we make sense of digital transformation and its many social, political, cultural, and environmental implications at different locations around the world? Vertical Atlas brings together the insights of a diverse group of internationally renowned artists, scientists and technologists from different backgrounds and places. From an investigation into the lithium mines in the Democratic Republic of Congo to maps of the fiber-optic submarine cables in the Atlantic and the ride-hailing platforms of China. Vertical Atlas is not a classic atlas that depicts the world in a uniform manner and it is not a simple collection of traditional maps. This book is a tool that enables comparisons, connections and contradictions between different and diverse visions, realities and worlds – through newly commissioned diagrams, interviews, essays and works of art by leading experts from around the world."

Publisher . 2025-11-3 File:Deborder Bollore 2025.epub "Une publication multiformat coĂ©ditĂ©e par plus d’une centaine d’éditeurices indĂ©pendant·es, disponible Ă  la vente en librairie et en libre diffusion sur deborderbollore.​fr aux formats web, EPUB et PDF. Dans le contexte de la campagne DĂ©sarmons BollorĂ©, et en emboĂźtant le pas au boycott appelĂ© par les « libraires antifascistes », nous, Ă©diteurices indĂ©pendant·es, coĂ©ditons collectivement cette publication multiformat pour prendre part depuis notre secteur Ă  la rĂ©flexion gĂ©nĂ©rale sur le dĂ©mantĂšlement de l’empire BollorĂ©. Les contributions mettent en avant la pensĂ©e de chercheureuses, d’imprimeureuses, d’éditeurices et de libraires qui analysent et/ou subissent les dynamiques de concentration et d’extrĂȘme droitisation du marchĂ©. Chacun·e tente de formuler, depuis sa position respective, des rĂ©ponses Ă  cette question urgente : comment faire face au libĂ©ralisme autoritaire dans le monde du livre ? En tant qu’éditeurices indĂ©pendant·es, nous sommes indirectement visé·es par le projet totalisant de BollorĂ© car nos structures sont des espaces qui permettent la fabrique de contre-rĂ©cits et la circulation de voix minoritaires. Face Ă  de grands groupes monopolistiques qui filtrent les rĂ©cits, il nous faut lutter pour prĂ©server ces espaces essentiels de rĂ©sistance et qui — n’en dĂ©plaise aux prophĂštes·ses du « grand remplacement » et aux croyant·es du « lobby LGBTQ+ » — se font rares. La forme de cette publication multiformat part du constat suivant : si, Ă  lui seul, Vincent BollorĂ© se montre capable de mobiliser des moyens logistiques et mĂ©diatiques colossaux pour mener sa « guerre civilisationnelle », alors nous devons, de notre cĂŽtĂ©, mobiliser l’entiĂšretĂ© de notre rĂ©seau d’éditeurices, de diffuseurs, de libraires et de relais mĂ©diatiques pour y rĂ©sister. Face Ă  la concentration par les grands groupes, faisons jouer la multiplicitĂ© et la singularitĂ© caractĂ©ristique du monde du livre indĂ©pendant. BollorĂ©, par l’intermĂ©diaire d’Hachette, est un acteur majeur de la concentration capitalistique du milieu Ă©ditorial, mais il n’est pas le seul instigateur de cette dynamique. C’est la structure mĂȘme du monde du livre qui permet Ă  de grands groupes de s’accaparer 90 % du marchĂ© de l’édition. Ainsi avons-nous dĂ©cidĂ© de « dĂ©border Bolloré », c’est-Ă -dire de dĂ©passer la figure, certes exubĂ©rante du personnage, pour comprendre, dans un premier temps, les mĂ©canismes avec lesquels il opĂšre et comment, dans un second temps, les dĂ©jouer depuis nos positions d’acteurices de l’édition indĂ©pendante."
