NEW TLP EDITION
The Most Beautiful Anthropocene, Aindreas Scholz

Grab your copy of this new TLP Edition by Aindreas Scholz. The Most Beautiful Anthropocene asks how photography might register climate crisis materially, as trace, collaboration, and slow transformation. In this sequence, beauty is not offered as consolation, but as a charged threshold through which fragility, loss, and entanglement can be sensed.

Acts of Defiance, Rose Comiskey

“The images of protest taken by Rose Comiskey between 1984 and 1992 are vibrant records created by an activist photographer from within the movement. When coupled with the personal testimony of her fellow agitators this book presents a cogent and compelling picture of a period of political and social turmoil in Ireland … [Acts of Defiance is} both a lasting record of past achievements and a blueprint for how to enact future change.” From the foreword by Orla Fitzpatrick

The Text Score Dataset 1.0, Jennifer walshe

Composer Jennifer Walshe has been at the forefront of experiments with AI, art and music for over a decade. Beginning in 2017, Walshe embarked on a somewhat quixotic enterprise, the creation of a massive - one might say definitive, or at least definitively chaotic - dataset of text scores. Her goal was to train a machine learning system to generate new text scores so people could perform them. Walshe’s dataset now comprises over 3,000 text scores, running to almost half a million words, ranging from Fluxus event scores to recent works. Outputs from the project have been performed all over the world. 

The Text Score Dataset 1.0, first published online in 2021, and brought out in print for the first time in 2026 by RBO/Shift, features essays by Walshe and chief “data wrangler” Ragnar Olafsson, as well outputs from the project. Walshe reflects on how the act of dataset curation is never a neutral one, rife with omissions, compromises and endless artistic, technical legal and ethical decisions, making the curation of a dataset a singular and creative act.

Iarlaith Ní Fheorais: There’s a Tunnel Under Ballybrit Business Park

As part of her ongoing research in disability, health and medicine, Iarlaith Ní Fheorais’ publication There’s a Tunnel Under Ballybrit Business Park critiques the continuing rise of Ireland as a key location for the global medical technology industry. Generously assisted by the Irish state’s financial support and industrial policies, MedTech has grown rapidly to become a dominant economic force, with factories producing millions of advanced medical instruments, devices and equipment for export each year.

There’s a Tunnel Under Ballybrit Business Park is published as part of access: practices and habits, a collaborative artistic research programme involving Askeaton Contemporary Arts in Limerick, If I Can’t Dance, I Don’t Want To Be Part Of Your Revolution in Amsterdam and Bulegoa z/b in Bilbao.
