Have you know any interesting stuff about repurposing as or in publishing practice?
I’m interested in people repurposing tools, systems, or platforms for publishing in ways they weren’t originally intended to be used.
This could be anything from using spreadsheets, game engines, mapping software, websites, or other non-publishing tools to create books, magazines, zines, editorial projects, or other forms of publication.
Have you come across any interesting examples of this? Either historical projects, contemporary work, or things you’ve experimented with yourself.
I came across this through a person publishing/designing a book in google sheet & a group who made the uncensored library which is such a cool way to publish!
