In recent
years there has been a growing interest in collaborative and collective
practices across and beyond the arts. But what does it actually mean to
work collectively? During a series of public happenings based around
collectivity and being together, diverse self-organised collectives
actively explored this question at Roodkapje, a laboratory for ART x
LIVE x FOOD in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Through cooking, eating, and digesting together, questions were raised around what it means to be (or not to be) a citizen in a larger community; how to radically experiment with distribution of power in existing hierarchies; how to find ways of collective self-determination in inhospitable systems; and how to build collectivity with more than human collaborators.
Cooking Up Collectivity collects the recipes, questions, drawings, methods, menus, conversations, and other experimental outputs from this programme to encourage readers to build their own collectives and to self-organise.

Double Digits explores the phenomenon of duplicated
door numbers in the city of Bruxelles. Often found in certain neighborhoods,
these human interventions are markings of a change of ownership or perhaps
usage of the building. Instead of being removed completely, the older numbers
hover around like small reminders of their former self.
