After many years of co-organising the Antiuniversity, the current crew is ready to hand over this wonderful, radical, wayward baby project. We will be hosting an outreach event to meet those interested in helping out and explain how the festival is currently organised.

📜 Join us in our utopian dreaming for a brainstorming session on DIY publishing and what it could look like to set up a feminist press free from submission processes, top-down editing or formatting pressures, instead founded on resource sharing, mutual support, companionship, comadreo, transmission, circulation, political alliances, multi-disciplinarity and collectivised knowledge.

School of the Damned (SotD) is an arts and educational platform. Re-forming on an annual basis, each cohort has the opportunity to define the agenda and produce work and events individually and collectively. SotD was formed in 2014 as a reaction to the increasing financialisation of Higher Education in the UK. SotD has no tuition fees, is student led and peer supported. We use our collective resources and networks to make the things we want to happen, happen.

What are the particular challenges to labour organising that are faced by cultural workers? Can we adapt traditional organising strategies and learn from past struggles? What new tools or principles might be necessary to take on the cultural industry and win?

I built this website using jekyll: a static site generator that allows you to host your site on GitHub. It was through helping build the new antiuniversity website that I got more into the diy web world. At the time, I got my head around website structures/folders using Small Victories (doesn’t exist anymore ☹) and then neocities.
