BS SHADOW LIBRARY

A disappearing-reappearing collection of reading material compiled by friends and colleagues at WdKA Social Practice department

The Beyond Social Shadow library is a collection of texts and resources compiled by faculty, students, and friends of the Social Practice department at Willem de Kooning Academy. By submitting things to the BS Shadow Library, you agree to share them in an open source manner and increase access to bodies of knowledge, often kept locked behind paywalls or simply languishing on your hard drive. None of these items will ever be sold in exchange for money, though they may be printed or otherwise distributed for free whenever the archive is activated at Beyond Social events and appearances.

SHADOW LIBRARY V 1.0

GAP YEAR READING LIST 4–8 July 2018

The Beyond Social Shadow Library launches as a component of the 2017–18 WdKA Graduation Show. Contributors were asked via email to respond to a prompt: If any of the graduating students in Social Practice should choose to take a gap year after finishing school, what material could they read? These texts, along with information uploaded by students on their graduation show works, are compiled under the title Gap Year Reading List. The GYRL shall be made public in two ways during the 2017–18 WdKA Graduation Show (4–8 July 2018 WED–SUN):

CONTRIBUTE

Feel free to contribute to Beyond Social.

 

There are four ways to contribute:

Create a new article. Beyond Social is written and edited by its community. Contribute to this online publishing platform with an article (text, photo-essay, video, audio and so on) about your project, theory, event or initiative in the field of Social Art & Design.

Edit this page, or any of the other ones. If there is any missing information or spelling mistakes in this article, please don't hesitate to change it. Other complementing work, such as including media files (images/video's/audio) is also very much appreciated.

Talk with the contributers and others by taking part in one of the discussions on the TALK-page of an article. These pages are the semi-hidden backside of articles, hence ideal for discussions about an article without changing the initial text.

PROPOSE a new editorial. Beyond Social invites guest editor(s) to emphasize a certain issue, topic or theme. Guest editors write an editorial, invite others to create articles by an open call and/or add existing articles.
