The Digital Archive of Artists Publishing (DAAP) is an interactive, user-driven, searchable database of Artists' Books and publications, that acts as a hub to engage with others, built by artists, publishers, and a community of producers in contemporary Artists' Publishing, developed via an ethically driven design process and open-data methodology.
A collaborative project, with the support of Wikimedia UK, it is inspired by the site of Banner Repeater's public Archive of Artists' Publishing on Hackney Downs train station, with 11,000 people passing a day, in response to the need for a similarly dynamic approach to archiving in an online context.

A reading group with invited guests will open up key themes of the exhibition prior to the opening at 6.30pm-8pm. We will be reading together, with drinks, snacks* and conversation, exploring several approaches that address the politics of self publishing, both digital and print, that inform alternative archive making.
