GCD Memes

GCD Memes is a rolling body of work that attempts to reflect on the collective experiences of those involved in the GCD course at CSM from the student perspective. Over the past few weeks, the account has developed into a tool to collectively reflect, express and find humour in strange and uncertain times. It has reached far beyond those involved on the course at CSM. The profile is a reminder of how we can remain connected through shared experience and understanding beyond the borders of our communities, even in the most isolated times.

GCD Memes is currently on hold in protest of the systemic racism present within UAL. Visit @gcd.memes on Instagram for more info, and please sign the change.org petition in support of this protest, linked in their bio.

“Learning from COVID19: Reflections on knowledge-related commons and practices of self-organization amidst COVID19” is the result of an open call for contributions launched by School of Commons in late April 2020. Shortly after COVID19 put much of the world into lockdown, the contributions form a collection of observations and different practices of learning, self-organisation, and building community amidst a global pandemic. The submitted contributions are varied in form and content, and have not been curated in any way, instead offering space to the diverse experiences and responses of all contributors.
