To: digi-yards at berlinergazette.de

Hi,

at the TACIT FUTURES conference the Berliner Gazette team invited
participants and guests to donate for a refugee project at an emergency
shelter in Germany's capital. This was supported by a variety of publishing
houses such as AK Press, transcript, Diaphanes, Passagen, Merve and Meson
Press.

The publishers donated copies of books that related to our conference
themes: migration, border policy, globalization, refugee rights, digital
politics and so forth. In exchange for donations, conference guests could
acquired these books. The money that we collected went into a refugee
project: The printing of a photo brochure, that is 180 pages long and
contains more than 100 photos which show the approx. 200 people of the
community of this emergency shelter – refugees and so called "welcoming
citizens" alike.

Here an image of a spread inside the brochure, which came from the printing
press the other day:

Usually invisiblized in the public realm (of mainstream media), this
brochure enables the community to obtain a "visible face". The photos in
this brochure show a community that came into being literally overnight in
a school gym which housed hundreds of people young and old, male and
female, from more than 20 countries – a place at which also countless
community activities were autonomously organized.

Actually some of the refugees and helpers of this community were active
participants at the TACIT FUTURES conferences, among them Hamed, who's
story is shared in the multimedia project "Lives in Movement":

For the moment, the brochure's distribution is limited to the emergency
shelter community. But we would like to continue working on it in order to
make it available to a broader audience in the form of a public book. If
you want to support this (e.g. in form of donations), please write us an
email!

Kind regards,

Krystian
