"The under and overrepresentation of different races and classes in different sports does not only reveal a practice that disciplines specific bodies to perform specific gestures and roles, but also reveals a regime of power that allocates certain bodies to restricted spaces."
Boelen, J., & Kaethler, M. (2020). Social matter, social
design. Valiz.

"Rather than being rooted in biology, the difference between male and female bodily movements appears here as the consequence of a social environment which constructs normative gender categories."
Boelen, J., & Kaethler, M. (2020). Social matter, social design. Valiz.

"The celebration of 'champion bodies' creates the idea of a normalised 'prize' body. This, in turn, excludes those bodies that don't fit in."
Boelen, J., & Kaethler, M. (2020). Social matter, social design. Valiz.

"The design of the sports field also embodies the heteronormative fiction of there being two distinct body types."

"Design must become an innovative, highly creative, cross-disciplinary tool responsive to the true needs of ..."
"The social context of design, as well as the public and lay reader, is damned by omission."

"In an environment that is screwed up visually, physically, and chemically, the best and simplest thing that architects, industrial designers, planners, etc., could do for humanity would be to stop working entirely. In all solution, designers are implicated at least partially."

"The second issue of MsHeresies includes collages, paintings, and hommages to the work of sisters Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf, whose collaboration defied preconceived ideas of both text/image hierarchies, as well as rivalry at the cost of sisterhood. This visual essay is published alongside William Morris’s lecture Useful Work versus Useless Toil from 1884 which introduces the idea of the ornamental and its relationship to work and rest.
The ornamental can only come about under certain conditions: ___ enough rest, agency, and variation of work. The ornamental is ___ never an outcome or product of these conditions; but
___ something intrinsically intertwined therein."

L: Catch that Beat! (1999-2000s) == Tokyo-based riot grill zine produced by Yayoi, who published reviews of music gigs and of other 1990s zines. Printed on yellow copy-paper and shared similar graphic aesthetic to its Western grill counterparts, using visual language of hand-drawn hearts and stars and stencil letterforms.

R: Asian Girls Are Rad (1994-n.d.) == produced in Austin, Texas as an account of the producer's friendships with Asian women and fascination with Japanese popular culture.

Girly Transgender Zine (1995-c.1999) == produced by Mona Compleine (aka Simon Murphy), a longtime contributor to the fanzine and music communities, who had a unique perspective on London's trash drag culture. Each issue of the quarterly zine was produced on a different-coloured stock and used a format that dispensed with staples by folding down a larger piece of paper.
This made it cheaper to produce and as a result it was given away for free.

L: Girls Who Fight (2009-) == by Kathryn Corlett et al., is a collection of writings, illustrations and comics that look at representation, women and celebrity, including 'Nina Simone, Anaïs Nin, Beth Ditto, Virginia Woolf, etc.'.

R: Bikini Kill (early 1990s) is focused on the eponymous band (quote: 'three of my best friends are in Bikini Kill and we made this fanzine together... and we all play music together...').

L: Dancing Chicks (1999) makes the point that fanzines are more than just writing about 'cool bands' and reflects on how zines have affected the writer's life in a positive way.

R: Shocking Pink (1981-82, 1987-92) == resonates the DIY politics of the feminist movement, and became a voice for young women in the UK on issues such as sex, voilence against women and queer politics.

L: Kitty Magik (1996-) == Maker of K.M. Marisa drew the zine upon a growing network of women zine producers including Lisa Carver (Rollerderby) and Molly Neuman (Girl Germs).

R: Rollerderby (1990s) == ran for 25 issues over ten years covered such issues as masturbation and incest.

R: Leeds & Bradford Riot Grrrl! (1993) == gave a localized spin on the movement; in the interior spread below is a manifesto for activism.

(saw this kind of concept at Büro Bum Bum, they republished and slightly redesigned 'Design for the Real World' by Victor Papanek > "Victor Papanek is a pioneer of our time. He has developed many ideas for sustainable design since the 1960s and 1970s. His design-theoretical classic publication Design for the Real World was out of print for a long time or only available at high prices. During the research, we found a PDF on the internet with the fully scanned second edition from 1984. From this, we designed our small book edition to make the still current ideas for a humane ecology and social change from 1971 accessible to ourselves, friends and interested people."

> As a response to the predominantly
male presence in the design scene, this
book exclusively presents works by
exceptional female designers. It is not
about discovering something inherently
“female” and defining “feminine” design,
but to counter the male-dominated discourse of the sector. The carefully selected graphic works stand on their own and range from commissioned assignments via free artistic projects to the area of design research. They open new perspectives on how diverse contemporary graphic design can be.
This presentation is complemented by interviews conducted with 22 female designers, sociologists and design theorists. To shed light on the lacking visibility of women in the design sector, the editors especially focused on the design philosophy, perceptions, and ideals of the respective sectors and the experiences encountered in everyday work situations.
