Ultralight Publication
ultralight publication is three letter sized pieces of paper folded in half lengthwise living inside a translucent glassine envelope. It features “ultralight recipes” throughout — lightweight structures allowing for growth, accumulation, and reflection, as well as ways to practice levity in everyday life.
It features ultralight contributions from Adrienne Bennett, Tiger Dingsun, Benjamin Earl, Elliott Etzkorn, YatĂş Espinosa, Saba Feleke, Bokeum Jeon, Jess Joseph, Chino Kim, Nile Koetting, Alanah Lam, Kevin Lin, Anna Marl, Marie Otsuka, Giri Nathan, Meghna Rao, Omar Rizwan, Mike Sugarman, Lexi Visco & Calvin Rocchio, and Austin Wade Smith.
We are launching it today 6-8pm at Printed Matter in Chelsea, NYC.
Update: 7.29.2024 — You can now purchase this zine for worldwide delivery at laurel.world or at printedmatter.org. There are also 10 copies recently restocked at the Printed Matter location in Chelsea, NYC.
ultralight publication was created by the participants of the Fruitful School workshop this past winter, “Ultralight: Lightweight Websites in Time & Place” taught and orchestrated by Laurel Schwulst. Special thanks to the ultralight publication team: Adrienne Bennett, Jess Joseph, Nile Koetting, Giri Nathan, and Meghna Rao for co-creating it together.
Special thanks to Visible Cloaks, Yoshio Ojima & Satsuki Shibano for the format inspiration.
