A glimpse into Futuress’ endeavors in “Publishing Anecdotes”
In July, co-director Mio Kojima talked about her journey at Futuress in a conversation with graphic designer, researcher, and cultural worker Roman Karrer. In the interview, Mio provides insight into Futuress’ upcoming endeavors and shares how her desire to work in publishing is fuelled by her drive to lifelong learning and finding community.
In “Publishing Anecdotes,” practitioners from the broad field of artistic and critical publishing were invited to share a short anecdote from their practice—a thought, an image, a memory, or whatever else they had at hand. The publication gathered contributions by the initiator of [Imagine: A Bookshop] Björn Giesecke, Books People Places, Edition Zweifel, Jungle Books, Macaco Press, founder of Queer.Archive.Work Paul Soulellis, Pseudopress, Robida, Roland Früh, Sans Soleil, Set Margins’, Wirklichkeit Books, and Futuress.
