[ecrea] publication: transversal texts launched

Wed Jul 02 17:50:31 GMT 2014



Launch of a new multilingual platform: transversal texts.

transversal texts is an abstract machine and text machine at once,
territory and stream of publication, production site and platform – the
middle of a becoming that never wants to become a publishing company.

transversal texts consists of an experimental site for publishing books
and e-books in multiple languages, the multilingual web journal
transversal, and a blog on current news from the middle of translation,
social movements, art practices and political theory.

+ books
Beginning in October 2014 we will start experimenting with the
publication of affordable books and e-books for free downloading,
multilingual as far as possible, including texts by Félix Guattari&
Antonio Negri, Precarias a la deriva, Gin Müller, Rubia Salgado, Monika
Mokre, Brigitta Kuster, Ulf Wuggenig, Birgit Mennel, Stefan Nowotny and
Gerald Raunig. The program can be found here:http://transversal.at/books.

+ journal
The most recent issue of our web journal is an in-depth discussion of
the general starting point for the project transversal texts. Under the
title “The Insurrection of the Published” the journal provides specific
insights into the “Death Throes of the Publication Industry” and the
potentials of an empancipatory concatenation of writing, translating,
and publicly negotiating publications. Authors: eipcp, Isabell Lorey /
Otto Penz / Gerald Raunig / Birgit Sauer / Ruth Sonderegger, Stevphen
Shukaitis, Felix Stalder, Traficantes de Sueños, An Anonymous Iranian
Collective.
In cooperation with the new journal Kamion.

In the transversal texts blog a translocal network of authors conjoins
current political texts with announcements about events, publications,
actions, manifestations, and campaigns.
