—- Critical cultural theory workshops about the messiness of all the things

It’s kind of a mess, right? Like all the things. Work can be pretty meaningless when it is not absolutely anxiety-inducing, but the rents are also pretty high. Friendships and community can seem like a luxury that is hard to retain when the pressures of nuclear coupledom and reproduction are so individualised and isolated, and public spaces keep disappearing. And that before we get onto the big stuff like raising geopolitical tensions, tech surveillance and addiction, the ascendency of fascism and the collapse of the climate. At times like these, it can help to try to get a clear sense of what is going on, and theory is a great tool for that. Especially if you take it out of the competitive context of formal education. These workshops aim to do just that by providing you a critical tool kit with which to think about what the fuck is going on, in a relaxed and constructive atmosphere. When people sign up, they can email a question or a problem, and the workshop will be designed to help address them. The workshops will take the questions and problems as the starting point to dive into resources of critical cultural theory through explanation, conversations and activities in smaller groups. At the end of the workshop, we’ll draw the connections together and be able to see more clearly what exactly is going on, and have a better idea of what can be done about it.

This workshop is a pilot, so you can sign up for the low, low price of 50kr.

A double-whammy of a cosy bookshop concert featuring the Mexican artist José Orozco Mora and local Mads Kjeldgaard.

José Orozco Mora's live performance combines his self-built acoustic instruments and modular synthesis, all framed by his research into alternative tunings and just intonation.

Mads Kjeldgaard will be playing a concert using a new electronic music instrument, The Harmony Exploration Instrument aka. HEI. Expect thick but pleasent layers of melodic and harmonic patterns inspired by the growth processes of nature.

About the artists

José Orozco Mora, originally from Chapala, Jalisco, currently based in Mexico City, works with sound across multiple disciplines, including sound installation and design, composition, production and post-production, as well as experimental lutherie. His work focuses on exploring sound with a particular emphasis on its physical properties and its relationship with acoustics and psychoacoustics. To achieve this, he experiments with alternative tunings, a careful selection of timbres, and the spectral content of both acoustic and electronic instruments, many of which he designs and builds himself. This in-depth sonic exploration has led him to work with various media and formats, including sound installations and multichannel works.

Orozco has been a recipient of the Jóvenes Creadores grant from PECDA Jalisco (2021 and 2024) and the Jóvenes Creadores program from FONCA (2023). His recordinds has been published by renowned record labels such as Cassauna / Important Records (United States), Hole Records (Mexico), Constellation Tatsu (United States), and Debacle Records (United States). His work has been presented in Mexico, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Greece, Austria, Switzerland, New Zealand, and Denmark. Orozco holds a master's degree in Music Technology from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) and is currently pursuing a doctorate at the same institution.

Mads Kjeldgaard is a sound artist and composer from Denmark. His work encompasses text, photography, motor-based sound art, electronics, field recordings, and programming. In 2024, he founded the platform Exformal Records for sound and listening-based thinking, followed in 2025 by hyaline.systems, a platform for creative technology. He studied electronic music composition at The Royal Academy of Music (DIEM), trained as a journalist, and has worked for several years in the art-technology field as a developer, and is a member of The Danish Composers’ Society.

Mie Albæk Nielsen’s debut novel, Lystprincippet, is coming out May 15th. On Wednesday, May 21st, we loosely get together with Mie, and some copies of the book, between 16-19, to celebrate.

Mie’s writing is like the soft summer breeze that pats your head and you think “so cute, i’m alive” and then you notice it toppled over everything around you. Its gentle strength is pure poetry.

Everyone’s welcome.

The book is only available in Danish, for now, but we’ll chit chat in all the languages we can and even attempt a reading in English, (maybe!) :)

a whenever-we-can-make-it publication of poetry and revolt
we collected submission last winter — it is time to gather and celebrate a kind of harvest.

looking forward to meeting the authors, seeing and hearing their texts read aloud and celebrate a whole bunch of people who made this happen!

A read and write together: weekend writing hours (Saturday, May 3rd, 10-13:30) plus a sharing evening (Monday, May 5th, 18:15-20:15)

Be in hyper-writing-focus on Saturday and on Monday share work-in-progress, read aloud, and get some feedback. You share a piece of writing and also share what kind of feedback you might be looking for, and you get: 

• An audience that is not your partner, roommate, siblings, or parents, - some fresh ears, who will listen, ears perked and hearts open 

• People who KNOW the vulnerability involved in this, they know the messy and the frustrations of work in progress who will give you some nudges and new ideas to explore!

• That vibe and space and the crowd that we’re often hungry for - where are the other writers in the neighborhood you might ask yourself? Maybe some of them will show up to this and you can meet them, who knows, it will be a fun surprise! 

It will be in English - All genres // all kinds of voices welcome! Multiple times published to never published to don’t care about being published - all welcome. This is for people who enjoy writing, who want to share, who are both willing to receive and provide encouragement, because we all need that these days. 

When you sign up for a reading night - you also get access to a writing desk over the weekend. Come sit and write write write on a weekend morn with all of the creative juices flowing at a desk behind the bookshop alongside others who want to do the same. Tea/coffee will be provided. No facilitation here - just a desk, your writing, a friendly vibe - and some focus time to write dammit! No more excuses for me and you both. 

We do this at first once a month but we might go towards 2x a month after we see how it goes, the hope is to establish a little dynamic group that is keen on writing and sharing.

Once scorned and celebrated, Tarot faced criticism and admiration alike. From being condemned as a dark tool to being hailed as a mysterious revelation, it endured persecution and adoration. Eliphas Levi, French writer, and the author of "Transcendental Magic," when asked which book he would take to prison, declared that it would’ve been a Tarot deck. In Tarot, he believed, lie all the keys to understanding the laws and principles of the universe, and within its cards, one finds stories unmatched by any writer's imagination.

Every time I lay out the Tarot cards, I am amazed by the accuracy of their symbolism. They serve as a starting point for profound discussions about all life’s aspects- beauty, limitations, fears, and anxieties inherent in our existence. These mysterious images inspire honest reflections, discoveries, and transformations.

In this workshop, I want to to share my knowledge and experience with you. Together we will explore the art of tarot reading with hands-on practice, decoding symbolical messages, and mastering tarot spreads. After this workshop, you will be know how to interpret tarot cards, use them as both the meditation or divination tool and learn what it takes to become fluent in Tarot symbolic language.  - Wiola

No prior tarot knowledge required.

The workshop includes:

11.00 to 14:00 - three hours of learning, practicing, and networking.

So, bring a book to SUPeR!

Rotating 7-minute conversations with like-minded people and their books.

It can be a comfort book, a book that mirrors who you are, a book whose main characters you want to gossip about, a book you hate, or the last book you read. The intention is not to judge each other’s taste, but rather to bypass small talk and maybe leave the event with a new friend or at least some book inspiration.

The price includes one drink!

Join poet Ella Frears for a fun, low pressure writing workshop thinking about all things brief and small. 

Very short poems, flash fiction, micro-musings, fragments – looking at writers who do it well, we’ll explore how much we can pack into very few lines. 

No writing experience necessary, all welcome! 

Ella Frears is a poet and artist based in London. Her debut collection, Shine, Darling, (Offord Road Books, 2020) was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation and was shortlisted for both the Forward Prize for Best First Collection, and the T. S. Eliot Prize for Poetry.  Goodlord, (Rough Trade Books, 2024) her new hybrid work which takes the form of one long email to an estate agent, is shortlisted for the Forward Prize and the Sky Arts Awards’ Times Breakthrough Artist of the Year.

Here I am making a big fuss because I love her words and she’s coming to town as a SUPeR special guest: Ella Frears, one night only, for a reading (from Goodlord), and a chat, and questions, and all that’s good(lit!). Friday, April 25th, doors open at 18:00.

(Goodlord) is the kind of book I would have liked to burrow inside and slowly sip all the words. I was dragging it with me everywhere or maybe it was the other way around, it was dragging me around, taking me out, making me reappear in the world. ()

An email (if you take it from the cover), and also a novel, and also poetry, and also blue sky interjected by some crazy blizzard, only to come back to calm. A speedy punk odyssey. It’s an anger. Whether it escapes categorization or not, it’s a really swell and surprising read.

The workshop is 2 - 21⁄2 hours and will play with drawing on furniture - stools from the bookstore:)!

We’re gonna try to do a little design based on some artists who are known for drawing on wood and decorative techniques, and try to execute it together on the stools that would be later preserved for use in the bookstore. As usual accompanied by music + a coffee break:).

Dorota is a visual artist working mostly with drawing and illustration, but enjoys exploring and using other mediums, such as music mixing/a bit of djing, up-cycling or whatever else that seems fun.

think of this as an experimental book club that works as a tool for self-awareness and self-knowledge, but i hope it becomes its own thing. yeah, we read silly erotic books, but it's really an exploration of who we are, with a nice and open and sincere talk afterwards, or in the middle of it, or whenever, about who we are and what we want and what we desire, and what dont want but desire, etc etc maybe even about taboos, there's so many, and some are lodged into our brains so secretly.

so it's a conceptual book club, a dirty secrets club, a talk talk club, all these things.

Derrida in a documentary about himself was asked what he would like to see in a documentary about some important but dead philosophers and his answer was: "For them to talk about their sex life. . . . You want a quick answer? Their sex life!"

the evening will go as it goes, but the idea is to read out lout from this book (the first one is called In and Out and its cover is bright pink!!!) and take it from there, blush, giggle, pause and talk, trash the book because it's actually not palatable, etc. we’ll see, we’ll sea.

i dont need to mention this again but i will, inclusiveness and niceness, in all directions and back again, are a must. can we build trust? i think so. i wrote girly vibes + all genders welcome and i feel it as true but not sure it was the most appropriate explanation. hope you get the jist and come get a bit out of your comfort zone.

How can we organise ourselves differently in today’s capital-driven society? Are there ways of structuring our organisations that engage in new ways of world-making? Who are our support networks? How do we build infrastructures of solidarity?

For our third conversation we have invited T.J. Demos — writer, professor, researcher, activist & organiser to share insights on his research and particularly on his book “Radical Futurisms” (a big source of inspiration) published by Sternberg Press: “There is widespread consensus that we are living at the end—of democracy, of liberalism, of capitalism, of a healthy planet, of the Holocene, of civilization as we know it. In this book, drawing on radical futurisms and visions of justice-to-come emerging from the traditions of the oppressed—Indigenous, African-American, multispecies, anti-capitalist—as materialized in experimental visual cultural, new media, aesthetic practices, and social movements, T. J. Demos poses speculative questions about what comes after end-of-world narratives. He argues that it's as vital to defeat fatalistic nihilism as it is to defeat the false solutions of green capitalism and algorithmic governance. How might we decolonize the future, and cultivate an emancipated chronopolitics in relation to an undetermined not-yet? If we are to avoid climate emergency's cooptation by technofixes, and the defuturing of multitudes by xenophobic eco-fascism, Demos argues, we must cultivate visions of just futurity and multispecies flourishing.”

T. J. Demos is a professor in the Department of Art History and Visual Culture at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and Director of its Center for Creative Ecologies, with a multifaceted practice and a background in art history as well as activism and organising. He writes widely about contemporary art, global politics, and ecology, and is the author, most recently, of “Beyond the World's End - Arts of Living at the Crossing” and “Radical Futurisms: Ecologies of Collapse, Chronopolitics, and Justice-to-Come” **T.J. will be joining us over the world wide web.Weaving Practices – learning together how to organise differently, is a conversation series initiated by school of other nows (soon) that wishes to hold transdisciplinary and intergenerational forums so that in the process of school-dreaming-up, we can (all) learn with (!) those who have chosen to stand at the margins of conventionality and have designed alternative ways of being/making/teaching/living.

About school of other nows (soon) (still taking shape) — experimenting as a school-to-be (soon) dreams of holding space to critically move beyond polarisation and headline culture by building an infrastructure of solidarity across varying points of views, ages and life experiences. Our dream is to collectively challenge what is comfortable to become vulnerable — as we nourish and encourage acts of curiosity, imagination, experimentation, cooperation, decolonization and rest.

What is playful portrait drawing? Well, think croquis with its short timed intervals but instead we’ll be drawing each other’s portraits. And to add a fun twist, with each timed drawing we will explore a different art medium and add a creative constraint - e.g continuous line, non dominant hand, collage and many more. After we’ve loosened up with these quick exercises, you’ll have plenty of time to focus on a portrait in any style of your choice.

All materials will be provided, so just come along with a friend or loved one, or get to know the person sitting opposite you! We’ll be putting perfection aside and instead prioritising the joy of making marks on paper, bringing character and life to our observational drawings and getting in touch with our inquisitive and creative side. 

Alysha is a freelance illustrator obsessed with watercolours, mixed media sketchbook play, observational drawing and doodling all over her to-do lists.

Jody Barton comes to the bookstore with a brand new Tarot deck with completely new ideas, artwork and metaphors in keeping with the dismal and comic age in which we cower. Laugh, cry and hurl as you utilise these exquisite esoteric fortune telling cards to re-order your own disordered life(style) into something yet more baroque and disassociative. Meet the artist and writer of this romantic deluge Jody Barton, get him to sign your cards, pummel him for insights into the fog you call ‘your life’ and be a good member of society, turning up to awkwardly meet other people with obliquely similar interests. Drinks, salty snacks, maybe a playlist - Jody might even ‘talk’. It’s gonna be a gas.

Jody: "I'm totally devoted politically and emotionally to the right of all people to self-determine their identity and to live their lives in the peaceful way they want to live them. My entire practice as an artist is dedicated to this and I have worked for many organisations and individuals in support of these ideals. The content of my work in The Rotten Tarot is also in accordance with these beliefs. You can be assured that it is part of the future - not the past."

Ayurveda is the traditional Indian medicine. In Ayurveda, we believe that each person has a body type called dosha (Pitta, Kapha, Vata).

In this workshop, I will explain what Ayurveda is and how we can apply it to our modern lives. You will also learn about your specific dosha (body type) and receive general recommendations for better health (both mental and physical). By understanding your dosha and applying the wisdom of Ayurveda to your diet and lifestyle, you will enhance your daily life (health and well-being). It is also an opportunity to get to know yourself better, to understand what is “good” and “bad” for you based on your dosha, and to learn to listen to your body.

In Ayurveda, we prioritize prevention over healing. It makes more sense to invest a little energy in staying healthy than to expend a lot of energy trying to recover from illness. We will explore these concepts together, and you’ll be free to ask questions about this wonderful ancient Indian medicine. Join us to discover how to become a better version of yourself!

hosted by Sarah Depagneux Hendriksen  // sarah _yoga_officiel

The workshop is 1 1⁄2 - 2 hours and will include line work exercises, creation of the composition & free drawing on the big format on the floor/ accompanied by music + a coffee break:).

Drawing is primal and straight forward, everybody does it (to some extent) in their lifetime. This workshop is designed to explore and activate that creative impulse to start drawing more, for the sake of the process and expression itself, rather than for a specific result or an aesthetic. 

The point is to let loose and try to find yourself through different approaches to drawing.

Dorota is a visual artist working mostly with drawing and illustrations, but enjoys exploring and using other mediums, such as music mixing/a bit of dj-ing, up-cycling, or whatever else that seems fun.

Hey lovely Tarot Readers, now we are getting serious! 

This class is for the bold and brave, so perfect for all of you who have previously attended a Tarot Workshop or already have a basic knowledge of Tarot. 

We're going to dig deeper into our Tarot practices with some super fun social exercises, try out different Tarot spreads, and get hands-on with interpreting those tricky reversed cards. 

Please bring your own favourite Tarot decks. 

Every time I lay out the Tarot cards, I am amazed by the accuracy of their symbolism. They serve as a starting point for profound discussions about all life’s aspects- beauty, limitations, fears, and anxieties inherent in our existence. These mysterious images inspire honest reflections, discoveries, and transformations.

Create a physical artifact out of your digital traces!

In light of recent increasing tech-fascism and in turn, a growing desire to leave Big Tech platforms, this workshop invites participants to archive their online digital footprints physically.

Many of us have emotional attachments to our digital selves. This workshop functions as a process for participants to acknowledge and archive some of their online digital selves, past and present, which they may have complex, nostalgic, or sentimental attachments to. It is our hope that this process may facilitate a move away from using Big Tech’s infrastructure for archiving our thoughts and memories. As a step in this direction, we will be selecting and transforming digitally saved pieces of our life into physical pieces of art. 

Participants will print out images/text/data from their social media and create a physical artifact that they can take home with them using materials such as paper, cloth, glitter, glue, stickers, whatever else they might want to use. The workshop will allow room for creativity in materials and process. Where social media could be understood as IG, FB, Twitter/X, etc. but also more broadly speaking, old Tumblr accounts, Pinterest boards, ask.fm, etc. etc., (basically, whatever you want to archive and play with physically).

This workshop also coincides with CURSOR's current theme which is In the Archives. 

Cursor is a Copenhagen-based collective and micro-publication bringing together people across fields with the aim to deepen our understanding of the digital world around us.

Email us if you want to participate & cost is a barrier to participation or for other accessibility questions at maya@cursormag.net. Snacks will be provided.

It’s back, little baby! This time with another special guest gracious host: Nico!

long ago, ca. 2012, at Husets Bio, we ran a qweird weekly film club with Andy & Michael. we called it not enough lava lamps cause duh! and we showed movies we wanted to see. dead, bright gems.

i miss movies in small groups of to-each-their-own film fanatics, so here comes the thing: once a month, every month, we’re having a screening in the bookstore. it’s bigger than my living room and we have a projector. the quality might be sub-par at times, but the people and the stories will prevail. 

if it’s for you send an email via the SIGN UP button and add a bit of juice about your inner movie maniac.
