There are 12 manifestos in this book.

They were written in October of 2016 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania by 12 artists with distinctly different experiences and interests.

These 12 artists came up with the texts inside this book based off of a prompt to write an unconventional manifesto on an underrepresented topic which could be absurd, practical, idealistic, contradictory, hostile, hopeful, dystopian, in-between and beyond.

Their manifestos cover topics including abstraction, the data body, bad art, rejuvenating spaces for oppressed people, human-plant communication, disability and spectacle, inertia, audio processing software, fetishized heteronormativity, halting global production, expressive prosthesis, distribution of resources, among many others.
