The library has been a long-standing institution in our society, but what if we applied its philosophy more broadly? Let's imagine what it would mean to realise the possibilities of this proto-socialist concept and reintroduce free access to the commons through a library economy.

Why Imagination is Vital (   • Why Imagination Is Vital  )

The list of artists used is in the outro.
