These beautiful publications, developed by the 2024 Hammock artists-in-residence and risograph printed by Moniker Press ❣️ are now being distributed through an international network of Decentralized Distribution Nodes ———>> .art .sophia ———>>

The Decentralized Distribution Nodes are a network of past Hammock residents, each of them distributing the publications within their home communities — both rural and urban

Coordinated by Hammock Residency Press, the Nodes are found mainly across Canada, with some Nodes in the US and abroad 📡 )))

The Nodes help keep the decentralized heartstrings of Hammock alive 〰️〰️ involving past residents in our current programming 〰️〰️

We’re very grateful for the support we’ve had from a Canada Council for the Arts .council Seed Grant, helping us develop a framework for this alternative approach to publishing — one which stays true to our grassroots, DIY values, and involves both practicality and whimsy
