On (self-)publishing practices

№5 Kenneth Ting-Yu Lin & zhaoyuefan

In this episode, we talk with Kenneth Ting-Yu Lin and zhaoyuefan about their publishing project, Nomad Papaya.

They discuss leveraging university-owned infrastructure for self-publishing practices, and how to creatively hijack in exhibitions and events using a mobile book wagon.

Nomad Papaya is a self-publishing house focusing on transition of culture(s) and identit(ies), based in Taiwan and Germany. 

The founder started questioning the notions of identity and nationality but get really confused by himself, so he decided to make art books and collaborate with people, try (not) to answer and form new ideologies and relations.
What is changing when you cross the border, leaving your own history/home behind? Can encounter form new Identities ?
