EXPANDED EDITION 00


The Expanded Edition 00 represents the leading foundation of the XEROXED platform and can be conceived as an ongoing, expanded edition. In this edition, the (re)published content comes from the XEROXED family archive of underground ephemera, which was first started in 1975 and has been growing ever since. The collection, covering the period from the late 1960s to today, comprises flyers, fanzines, booklets, posters, vinyl records and publications linked to the Italian and international countercultural scene.

XEROXED aims to bring about a reactivation of the archive through the garment, which becomes the new publishing medium, transformed into a wearable page that unveils maps of meaning buried in the archive. In the process, the texts and images are reworked, distorted and recomposed by hand through gestural choreographies carried out on the scanner bed.

Within the Expanded Edition 00, there are different volumes, each one of them characterized by a different fanzinography. Each volume focuses on a specific theme or topic related to counterculture, underground movements and dissident practices. The garment becomes a space for the recontextualization of forgotten typefaces, logos, layouts, and content, transforming them into a wearable, embodied pamphlet.
