Exploding Tongues: Language, Art, and the Russian Avant-garde

DisAttachment Anxiety: an exercise in unwitting book design and compelled collaboration

The collaboration kicked off with a two-part meeting, "Backwording with Booksters," beginning with multimedia presentations by CSLC 134 / RUSN 334 students on Russian Avant-garde art, literature and book arts, followed by a spontaneously collaborative book-making activity at the Letterpress Studio, "(Dis)Attachment Anxiety," based upon an "exquisite corpse" model. In this exercise, students followed a series of steps for making a crude art book with found tools and ink, folded by stages from a broadsheet down to a folio, and interrupted with the occasional instruction to abandon their own current page and pass it along to a neighbor to complete.
