The WRPM Legacy Project – Preserving, sharing and activating the Women’s Revolutions Per Minute archive was a collaboration with Hilary Friend (WRPM Director) and Lesley Ruthven (Special Collections & Archives Manager, Goldsmiths University of London).

I founded the project Editions of You to celebrate and showcase self-publishing and self-releasing musicians and the handmade editions and releases they create. Core activities include curating and housing a physical archive of handmade releases and zines, and supporting independent artists and small labels by running a not-for-profit distro. A core establishing event for the project was the 2011 festival, funded by ACE, and organised in collaboration with the O3 Gallery and Oxford Contemporary Music, that included a gallery exhibition, gig and talk series, and zine fair. Core activities, particularly distro, 2011-2019.
