Get Rid of Meaning: A Journal of Interdisciplinary Writing is a biannual periodical by Sticky Fingers Publishing, exploring how and where meaning is produced, maintained and distributed. This third issue gathers together work that is activated, is of use. Here, we recognise that while we study to achieve clarity, the use of that clarity is to allow us to agree to take on greater risks for and with each other. This issue explores strategies for doing so, from the surreal set up, to access theft, to putting the sentence into crisis. Featuring contributions from Char Heather, Emil Woudenberg, Evie H. Reckendrees, gervaise alexis savvias, Jack Clarke, Jan Daoudi & yasamin ghalehnoie.
The night will be hosted by Donna The First. Expect painfully long party games, and hot-off-the-press publications available on the night.
