Description

The Postbag (Collected) explores "wider practices of dissemination, reproduction and distribution" as a collection of "newsletters I sent out to a mailing list of subscribers between September 2020 and the submission of this thesis in April 2024. [...] The PostBag is mirrored by other zines or writing practices that are zines or zineic, created by my contemporaries in zines studies, particularly: Kirsty Fife's Adventures in Academia; Cassidy Ferrari’s Pretty Huge Decision; and Peter Willis' column in Sticky Fingers’ publishing newsletter. These writings are autoethnographic, in their content and the ways that they locate their creators in the 'field', and engage in practices of reflection and formative dissemination."-- From Cooper, L. (2024) The zINe-between : a creative practice exploration of health, liminality, lived experience and the zines in Wellcome Collection, pages 9 and 59. https://kar.kent.ac.uk/106954/1/225The_zINe_Between.pdf
