.expub | Exploring Expanded Publishing
Edited by Tommaso Campagna, Marta Ceccarelli, Carolina Valente Pinto
.expub | exploring expanded publishing is the final publication of a two-year collaborative project exploring the infrastructures, politics, and networks of contemporary publishing. How can publishing infrastructures become more sustainable, modular, and open? What formats could fully embrace the long-standing promises of multimedia publishing? What does the future of publishing look like beyond platform monopolies and print/digital binaries? Part reader, part toolkit, part living archive, this book gathers essays, interviews, and hybrid publishing tools — from podcasts to print-on-demand, stream-based releases to online collaborative writing. Written and edited collaboratively using Etherport — an open-source tool linking live writing to web-to-print publishing — the book reflects the very practices it investigates: decentralized, modular, transmedial, and open-ended.
