The Precariat Self-Help Assembly Site
Using the format of a degree show as a starting point, where both time and attention is limited and precariats are rampant, 200 copies of The Precariat Self Help Handbook were printed (mostly self-funded by working at a cafe along with some kind donation of paper by staffs and students at London College of Communications) and distributed via an assembly line. Short descriptions were used to help visitors understand the content of each chapter to faciliate the building of their own handbook.
