Appendix F. The Exploding Appendix Avant-Garde Art and Research Group + Related News and Events

The Exploding Appendix Avant-Garde Art and Research Collective is a Brighton (UK) based group of artists, intellectuals and other inspiring fellow travellers who meet regularly to discuss ideas, issues and creative projects. These sessions tend to start with a general meeting where we discuss both projects related to Exploding Appendix and any other projects that those present happen to be working on. We tend to follow our meetings with a film screening, a live performance, an improvisation/creative session, a workshop, a photoshoot, an exhibition, a work in progress session, live music, a party, a reading group, a guest talk, an interview, a panel discussion, a debate or some other related activity.

These meetings runs parallel to the Exploding Appendix website (www.explodingappendix.com), a multimedia online magazine that produces videos, podcasts, articles, interviews and visual pieces exploring all aspects of ideas and culture, and also serves as a platform for presenting the art collective's projects.

Whilst drawing on the history of avant-gardist, countercultural and radical ideas, we aim to explore a whole range of issues beyond the narrow purview of conventional art discussion. We welcome people working across disciplines, working within different artistic mediums and coming from very different perspectives.
