This publication translates three performance works by Anahita Harding, which delves into the issues that affect disabled people in the UK today, through the bookform.

She explores the legacy of the London 2012 Paralympic Games in her performance piece, "Are You Comfortable Yet?" at the Tate Modern, as part of WAIWAV (We Are Invisible We Are Visible). The media campaign surrounding the Games aimed to shift negative attitudes towards disability. Despite these efforts, many disabled people continue to face hostility and discomfort in public settings. In "Are You Comfortable Yet?", Harding encouraged visitors to reflect on their relationship with bodily difference.

The first edition of our imprint Practice Meets Paper: a growing series of publications that spotlight an artist's work and translates it into print. The questions we pose with Anahita Harding's work here are: How can performance within landmark buildings be experienced through a publication? Can the scale of these monuments be felt? Can their lack of access be felt even more?

Memepage is a self-published series of guest-curated collages exploring identity and internet culture. We invite friends and collaborators to cut up their meme folders and physicalise their feed into a poster-zine. If your algorithm could talk, what jokes would they spew?

Memepage #1: Something Sweet
Romla Kadir pieces together memes gathered from her feed, reflecting on the malleable time between girlhood and the 9-to-5.

Memepage #2: The hottest thing a man can do..
Kaiya Waerea and Oisín Harmful lets us peek into their meme folders and their brains— to reveal an introspection (and interrogation) of our relationships, intimacies and identities. Included is a Memeterview on how memes enter their writing practices, who their algorithms think they are and beyond!

The Sexy Librarians newsletter aims to analyse the cultural figure of a librarian through a lens of aesthetics, gender, race, technology and material culture. A chosen librarian figure (real or fictional) will be the subject of each issue, and will have a part-fanfic, part-theory text written about them.

Éditions Atlas is a publishing project dedicated to collating and sharing textual responses to cinema which critically engage with the medium’s intersection with topics including geopolitics, identity and representation, mobility, imagined geographies and the ethics of lens-based practices

Commissioning new art works and essays responding to singular cinematic themes, works, moments, practices and individuals, our publications offer an analytical, multidisciplinary and tangible extension of on-screen antics.

Éditions Atlas was founded by Abiba Coulibaly in Spring 2024, stemming from longterm collaborative experiments between their project Brixton Community Cinema and South East London based studio and press Em—Dash.

A mini retrospective of the early filmography of British-Bengali actor Sarita Choudhury, and her embodiment of all that is subversive, sapphic, and sirenesque. Essays on Mississippi Masala (1991), Kama Sutra (1996) and Fresh Kill (1994). With commissioned artwork by iconic duo Athen Kardashian & Nina Mach Durban.

Fearless Hearts & Dreams Across Borders is a text on cultural hybridity written by film studies scholar Kulraj Phullar.

Revisiting Brixton Community Cinema's Sarita Season with Wild West (1992), Kulraj muses, "This film, which has fallen in the crack between the – understandably – more canonical Young Soul Rebel (1991) and Bhaji on the Beach (1993), feels so bold in its rejection of 'positive representation' and the burdens of representation that still impact on British filmmakers of colour."

Reflections and Recipes from Sarah Maldoror's Un Dessert Pour Constance (1979). Originally made for French television, the film carries the hallmark anti-hierarchical ethos of her oeuvre but stands apart both for its mirthful, abounding humour, and distance from a site of active combat. It follows the misadventures of two Senegalese street sweepers living in Paris.

Presenting three essays and recipes from film producer Elhum Shakerifar, film curator June Givanni & film critic Phuong Le. Publication supported by London Migration Film Festival.

Morphing Masculinities in the Films of Sami Bouajila, one of France’s leading actors whose four-decade-long career has drifted between the charged shores of the Mediterranean, complicating normative understandings of diasporic cinema and social relations as they relate to masculinity and alterity.

Four authors to reflect on the strengths, shortcomings and nuances of his filmography, a body of work that charts France’s racialised violence towards the Maghreb while offering a kaleidoscopic meditation on racialised masculinity. Featuring essays on and music from: La Faute á Voltaire (2000), Change-moi ma vie (2001), Les Silences du palais (1994), Bye-Bye (1995).

Programme Notes take the form of experimental printed matter that act as a critical context and re-readings to each film screening. Their design references textures, motifs, and formats from the films themselves, creating tangible objects that act as an extension of the narrative. Each note is created specifically for its programme, distributed freely to audiences, transforming a standard screening accompaniment into a participatory, multi-disciplinary artwork that engages viewers.

A collection of found imagery inviting you to personify the Objects around you and Tag Yourself! This exercise instinctively asks us to consider context and semiotics as we read Objects before self-reflecting and assigning the Self to an Object. This ritual of Self-Objectification permeates in our everyday lives; in how we understand ourselves, connect with others, in our memes, beliefs, and, ultimately, in how capitalism takes hold of us.

Eggs are the perfect medium, a protein-rich food that transcends cultures. A runny white, is contrasted and complemented by a thicker yolk, encased in a shell.
