A User's Guide to [demanding] the Impossible by Gavin Grindon,John Jordan,Laboratory of Insurrectionary Imagination Pdf
A User's Guide to [Demanding] the Impossible is "a brief introduction to strategies and stories of art activism throughout history, from Sylvia Pankhurst to Dada, Gustav Courbet to Electric Disturbance Theatre." This small volume was created by the Laboratory of Insurrectionary Imagination, a London-based collective, in an atmosphere of cuts to public programs and a resulting nationwide wave of protests. It was written in a whirlwind of three days in December 2010, between the first and second days of action by UK students against the government cuts, and intended to reflect on the possibility of new creative forms of action in the current movements.
