ABOUT TETI PRESS
Teti Press extends the activities and research of Teti Group into the printed and digital field, based on its interdisciplinary vocation and its search for collective synergies. Teti members have produced collective publication in the past, on topics stemming from its research agenda such as interstitial heritage (Gee & Stefano 2013), changing representations of nature and the city (Gee & Vogelaar 2018), histories of labour (Piantoni 2018), maritime poetics (Gee & Wiedmer 2021). Independent publications have also been explored: Anne-Laure Franchette explored zine production in a range of formats including with the collective Dupe; Gabriel Gee set up a small press with Vincent Fradet, Les Presses Éditables, which developed co-writing practices; occasional collaborations such as Port River City with Cliona Harmey and Aemi provided alternate models and formats combining printed object and digital interface.
Teti Press provides an in house platform to develop similar trandisciplinary projects, favoring cross-boundary exchange of knowledge engaging with industrial and cultural transformations of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, with the capacity to reflect on and inform pressing contemporary socio-political debates, while acknowledging the historical roots of these contemporary negotiations, longue durée, and the spectral survivals of the past into the present. Of prime interest to Teti Press are the ideas of translation, intermediality, the palimpsest, and polyphony.
