What will happen in your session?

The two session facilitators will present what a zine (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zine) and what data visualisation is. We will explain how zines and data visualization can be used to make complex information accessible. We'll also talk about the power of self publishing. Afterwards we will help the participants get started to create their own zines.

The session will be divided in two parts: the “theory” were the participants will listen and learn, and the “practice” were the participants will design and create their own zine while the two facilitators will go around and provide help and answer questions.

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

Each participant will make at least one mini-zine that they would then be able to photocopy and share with their relatives or their community back home.

We wish for the participants to feel empowered to share factual information in this age of disinformation.

If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.

An easy access to a photocopy would be a plus, but not necessary

Time needed

All weekend, as an installation, exhibit or drop-in session
