The Post-Digital Perma-Library : Cultivating Ecosystems of Cosmogonic Knowledge
Full text linkThis chapter introduces the concept of the post-digital perma-library as an artistic and philosophical response to the limitations of current hybrid library models and extractive knowledge infrastructures. Arising from the BiblioTech project, the perma-library offers a speculative, evolving framework for libraries as ecosystems of cosmogonic knowledge—repositories not only of data but of affect, memory, magic, and collective imagination. Blending insights from post-digital art, open-source cultures, and permaculture principles, the chapter proposes libraries as participatory, self-writing environments that reconfigure the relationship between readers, texts, technologies, and infrastructures. It explores topics including humanterfaces, shadow libraries, AI-human collaboration, and the stacking of cognitive, social, and environmental functions. Refusing proprietary systems and extractive logics, the perma-library becomes a resonant space for emergent, interdependent knowledge practices—living, adaptive, and committed to reimagining the future of intellectual and cultural life

Introduction : BiblioTech: ReReading the Postdigital Library
Full text linkThis illustrated chapter introduces BiblioTech, a curatorial and editorial project that reimagines the contemporary library through the lens of post-digital art. The library is presented as a hybrid, evolving ecology of interfaces, infrastructures, and practices—at once material and immaterial, personal and institutional, civic and computational. Drawing on exhibitions held in Liverpool and Limassol, the chapter traces how books and libraries have become complex mediating systems shaped by platform capitalism, automation, and digital abstraction. It reflects on the library’s shifting role—from a space of preservation to one of broadcast, speculation, and ambient labour—and positions post-digital art as a method for interrogating the politics and aesthetics of reading, writing, collecting, and cognition today. Through case studies, conceptual framing, and practical accounts of artistic and bibliotechnical experimentation, the chapter proposes the “post-digital perma-library” as both a critical figure and an imaginative infrastructure for cultivating new forms of knowledge and care in increasingly automated, surveilled, and hybridised academic and cultural contexts
