Jill and Hel from the Madzines team reflect on using zines to teach health and social care students
Alex Dunedin only relatively recently became aware of zines. Through the Madzines project he discovered that, quite by accident, he had been involved in creating what could be understood by some as zines. As he learnt more about zine culture, he says he felt a part of his life restored. In this blog post he explains why.
Tam Martin Fowles, founder of Hope in the Heart, recently attended a Madzines workshop and discovered a new tool for radical change.
Last October, a group of queer artists, health workers and researchers met at QUEERCIRCLE in London to discuss the idea of ‘Queering the Asylum’ using Queer methods. In this blog, Frances Williams explains how this came about and explores how zines and visual notes can capture the essence of Queer methods.
