Publication was supported by Raven Row, as the culmination of Plastic Words, a series of events held at Raven Row in December 2014 and January 2015. Taking Raven Row as a starting point, the participants- including leading writers, visual and performance artists- reflected on the possible overlaps, parallels, tangents and interferences between some of today's most adventurous forms of writing and art making. The variety of formats reflected the diversity of the contributors, spanning readings, performances, panel discussions and publishing experiments.
