Have you ever wanted to imagine an alternative web culture? Join this collective zine workshop, led by Daniel Murray and Kendal Beynon, where we explore just that.

Using a mix of digital media and handcraft, participants can work solo or in groups to create a page of the zine together and, at the end of the workshop, all the pages will be combined and printed out into zines that participants can take home.

Bring images or media you want to include on a USB stick or a laptop, if you have one. We’ll provide stock images/media, computers, inks, paper and other hardware that people can use to modify, morph and create images that reimagine web craft and speculate alternative approaches to existing online.
