In 2024, Little Red Riding Hood will start building (their) anarchive, which will be open to visitors from May. Little Red Riding Hood’s anarchive consists of anarchives that emerge from the Happenings organized by the residents of the Hamburger Community. To start anarchiving is to break away from the archive as we know it, to reject traditional forms of archiving and to propose to explore the ways in which the full sensory experience of lived life can be recorded. We want to pay attention to the silences left behind in conventional archiving practices and make space for reciprocity in collective memory and meaning-making. Our anarchive will be subjective, polyvocal and unevenly formed.

Little Red Riding Hood's Anarchive aims to collect moments, processes, and affective forces in the Happenings to create stories about what happened in ways that can potentially inspire future action. Artists are invited to translate the spirit of the Happenings into anarchival pieces; artworks that suggest new beginnings, relations, and ways of being. In May and June, you can visit the anarchival traces of PASTE, the first Happening of the year, organized by Hogus Bogus Publishing and Hamburger Community residents Tisa World, MC Julie Yu, Julia Wilhelm, Rumpelstiltskin, and Irene Cassarini. To develop the visual language and house style of this anarchive, we collaborate with artist and designer Iris Velzen.
