Black Mirror: Issue 1 - Embodiment
In this volume we explore the philosophy and practice of embodiment.

Psychopathia Sexualis
There are few works in the life of Austin Osman Spare as notorious as his illustrations for Krafft-Ebing’s Psychopathia Sexualis. First documented in the early 1930s by the socialite Viola Bankes, Spare shared various anecdotes about this commission with friends and acquaintances until the end of his life.
The Exhibition Catalogues of Austin Osman Spare
During the course of his creative life Spare produced more than 2000 drawings, watercolours and pastels. His exhibitions ranged from the fashionable West End of Edwardian London, to the earthy characterful taverns of post-War Southwark. This volume gathers together his very rare exhibition catalogues.
The Focus of Life (Redux)
The Focus of Life: The Mutterings of Aãos, is arguably the most biographically significant of all Spare’s published works. Often obscure, magical and fragmentary, it invites exploration of a strange Nietzschean landscape through what Spare termed ‘the labyrinth of the alphabet.’
The Book of Ugly Ecstasy
Created during an important and intensely introspective period in his life, The Book of Ugly Ecstasy provides a pure point of access for those wishing to explore further the energies with which Spare was working. It is published here for the first time.
The Witches Sabbath and Axiomata
The work comprises two complete previously unpublished texts by Spare bound back to back - ie the texts start at opposite ends of the book, with each finishing in the middle. Each text has its own color frontis and numerous black and white illustrations.

Over the course of a week, more than 300 people attended.
