THE ESSAYING ESSAYS TEMPORARY COLLECTIVE

A Temporary Collective of Readers
A project by FREE PRESS/ PLAN 9 BRISTOL

1st July- 1st October 2009


For three months the Essaying Essays collective will explore the possibilities of the essay form. What forms can the essay take and how can such texts be read? What is an essay and who is essaying and where? What kinds of knowledge can be produced? What is lost and gained in moving beyond conventional discursive approaches into using visual and textual material, the space of the page, variations of typography and design?

The ESSAYING ESSAYS TEMPORARY COLLECTIVE are David Berridge, Nancy Cambell, Rachel Lois Clapham, Emma Cocker, Nicola Conibere, Alex Eisenberg, Fiona Fullam, Alex Hardy, Andrew Jeffrey, Éilis Kirby, Jenny Lawson, Patricia Lyons, Pete McPartian, John Pinder, and Charlotte Turton.
