Synopsis

Survival is a common practice. We cannot do it alone; we need each other. We need tools and practices that help us to connect, to understand to build, to survive in this age of climate crisis, technological upheaval, existential pain. We need words and values and ideas that extend beyond the human space. We need to learn; and we need to unlearn. We need a Manual for Survival.

Ways of surviving together in an experimental and solidarity-based manner – this book wants to make other world designs accessible through and beyond artistic practice. The art in this book reflects on the nature, the planetary, transcendental questions of global connectivity as well as on community, a sense of playfulness, togetherness, shared experiences through culture. A high quality and richly illustrated book with innovative texts following the idea that we have to learn to live and think in contradictions without losing ourselves.
