How to Build a Kaleidoscope

A5 zine, Risograph
“Rehearsals of disengagement from the frenetic pursuit of the new are necessary if one seeks to see beyond the slicing of time into past, present, and future and to relate to actions classified as outdated and impracticable as concrete, common options. Rehearsing disengagement is the practice of doing potential history. Rehearsals begin by replacing the imperial impulse to innovate with a shared right to participate in the common.” - Ariella Aïsha Azoulay, Potential History: Unlearning Imperialism
What are the entangled practices we need to counter linear, capitalist productivism? A zine about nonlinear time and neurodivergent relations, inspired by the blog series Making Time Through Practices.
The final zine was created with accessibility in mind, with blocks of text printed in Open Dyslexic, a typeface designed against some common dyslexia symptoms. The accessible pdf of this zine includes alt text and image descriptions for screen readers.
