Torque Editions is an itinerant publisher and curatorial platform, producing books, events and exhibitions focused on themes of mind, language and technology. Founded in 2014 by Nathan Jones and Sam Skinner.

 

Our projects have engaged with subjects including surveillance, neuroscience, reading, and most recently blockchain. We develop projects through distinct phases of public research and experiment, including symposia, workshops, and artwork, bringing a wide variety of artists, researchers, and publics together. Resultant print and epub publications catalyse, document and disseminate the fruits of each project to a large and diverse audience.

 

To date we have collaborated with a wide variety of artists and academics, including Anna Barham, Charles Bernstein, Katherine Hayles, Lambros Malafouris, Erica Scourti, and art organisations including FACT, Tate Collective, the Grundy, Furtherfield, Radar, Constant, and Transmediale.

 

We are particularly interested in new and alternate modes of reading and writing, and the continuing life of print in a digital age. We welcome enquires from artists and organisation wishing to collaborate on innovative new media art and publishing projects.
