Zines are self-published, small circulation works, often in booklet form, that are made by piecing together multimedia such as original or appropriated texts and images. This research cluster will work to develop a pedagogical approach to zine-making for students in various disciplines, as well as local community groups. Output of this research cluster will include numerous zines produced by the cluster, U of I students, and community groups, and dissemination of the zines at the 2020 Small Press Fest.
