<p>We want to insert these words into author to acknowledge that the delivery of this work has been altered by recent circumstances (that no doubt altered you, too). This is not to say that the work is about Covid-19, but to make clear that our intentions and motivations were initially developed at a time when we felt different urgencies. We want to remember when our imagination was more hopeful, when we thought this work could exist as something useful for the students and staff of wdka. Now, we have had to paraphrase ourselves slightly. What can be learnt through an excavation and analysis of the studio in its immaterial state?</p>

<h1>how to use</h1>
<p>Performing as an online library of debris, this interface is made out of necessity for spaces and modes of organisation that are other to archetypal libraries. You will not be able to find an item by name or author, but only through the social relations which made the entry into the collection possible. As it is important for a multiplicity of forms of organisation to exist, knowledge organised into a system made by organised people also organised by a system, (capitalist, neoliberal, colonial, surveillance state, take your choice) it is also paramount to recognise the multiplicity of kinds of labour, and positioning, which lead to references being added to a collection. Each contributor to the library, a Librarian, has done their own work of collecting through their research and has reached the material they contributed to the library through a Method.</p>
