The Edgware Road Project
CAMP
is involved in a 2-year "print-from-web"
project, linked to its own investigations of the infrastructures of commerce and
pleasure in this part of London. As part of the first "block study", we looked at several buildings and their ownership and use histories, and produced a series of tablemats.
The web-based part of the project resides at http://edgwareroad.org. ( now at Print.with.camp ) This website collects materials from various such "studies", conducted by us and
others, which then are collaboratively edited and published in a number of physical forms: volumes, pamphlets and placemats.
This is an ongoing project, as part of the Serpentine Gallery's Public
Program.
In collaboration with the Centre for Possible Studies,
Janna Graham, Amal Khalaf and Åbäke.
Update: the very first publication/ pamphlet made using archival material and our editing / printing tool was done in the St. Marylebourne school in August 2010. This has become a "relay" in which by now various groups, in this case St. Marylebourne School, Ultra-Red, CAMP, Abake, have been already involved. This is sweet.
