Spoken Matter Radio is an experimental live radio podcast performance on sonic poetry and language based sound works.
The recording of the first episode, recently performed at @lettretage with appearances by @math.tra , Dominic Coles and Ulrich Nixdorff (Monique Ulrich and @readingerrata ) is now up on our website (link in bio).
For Tab Talks #10, African-American author Lilian-Yvonne Bertram @lillianyvonnebertram shares their screen.
Bertram is one of the central figures in contemporary digital literature. They write and let write, code, teach and canonise. Their programming practice is DIY and self-taught. This results in a critical perspective on technological change and ideologies of neutrality or standards. They use literature and digital tools to reflect on AI, race, and gender.
Currently, they are working on a memoir using a more traditional workflow. What similarities and differences occur writing in different genres and how ideas transform into text and code, they will discuss with Andreas Bülhoff.
For Tab Talks, authors share insights into the digital environments of their writing workflow. Combining workshop conversation and studio visit, they show programs and folders they work with – and also talk about the open tabs in their browsers.
Tab Talks is hosted by Andreas Bülhoff. Son Lewandwoski will provide live commentary via Instagram.

The event will be held in English (with German live translation).

We are very excited to announce our latest project “Spoken Matter Radio” – a live radio show with guests, mixing, interviews and experimental poetics using the extended field around our label. The first issue will be performed at @lettretage / ACUD Berlin on March 4 and you are warmly invited!
Spoken Matter Radio is hosted by Andreas Bülhoff (@andreasbuelhoff ) and Marc Matter (@marcmatter3 ). Guests for this episode will be Ulrich Nixdorff (aka Monique Ulrich and Tabea Nixdorff (@readingerrata )), who will release their tape „SOUNDING OUT (READING PARATEXTS)“ on this occasion, and Mathias Traxler (@math.tra )!
Drop by and tune in!
Dear Reader,
It was very meaningful and a great pleasure for me and the einBuch.haus team to welcome you last Friday for the reopening of einBuch.haus, together with the exhibition “Library of Artistic Print on Demand” by Annette Gilbert and Andreas Bülhoff @andreasbuelhoff (publisher: Spector Books @spectorbooks )
As mentioned in the speech, without your generous support and continued interest in einBuch.haus, I would probably not have had the courage to continue running the artist’s book space einBuch.haus in Berlin.
My sincere thanks go to Annette and Andreas, who made this exhibition possible despite the postponement caused by water damage last October. I would also like to thank Albert Coers, who created the special edition “Musterexemplar” on the occasion of the exhibition at einBuch.haus.
The exhibition is currently on view. We warmly invite you to visit during opening hours and discover the collection of Artistic Print on Demand.

*NEW ADDRESS*
📖
einBuch.haus will show a respective selection of the “Library of Artistic Print on Demand”: books as a medium to monitor and utilize technological change, books as memes, books materializing formerly impossible concepts, books that were produced via outsourcing or algorithms, books as hacks or containers for ephemeral digital cultures, books that tackle our fatigue in the face of an all-encompassing platform capitalism.
The “Library of Artistic Print on Demand”maps this experimental field for the first time and explores its ethical implications, critical poetics, historical depths and political relevance. It consists of a collection of more than 244 outstanding works preserved by the Bavarian State Library, a searchable online archive and an extensive catalogue with contributions by leading practitioners and scholars of the field published by Spector Books. @spectorbooks
📚
Annette Gilbert researches experimental forms of writing, artists’ books, and conceptual art. Andreas Bülhoff @andreasbuelhoff works both artistically and academically at the intersection of text and technology.

A Quest in Sandals: Creative Challenges to Unleash the Joy of Discovering New Perspectives (2025) is a low-content book written by Laura Paloma and Ezequiel Soriano @lumberj.aegis with an epilogue by Andreas Bülhoff @andreasbuelhoff
Instead of prompting ChatGPT to write a low-content book for her, Paloma sent her prompts to Soriano, who played the role of the Chatbot assistant, replying to her in the style and language of the LLM, accompanying her through the process of writing and laying out the publication. Their wish was to imitate the work process of a low-content book creator and to generate, layout and market their own low-content publication. Together they have written a summer-themed activity book for gifted adults which is now on sale in English and German on local online market places.
The printed book A Quest in Sandals is on sale at a market competitive price of 5 €chf / the ebook costs 2 €chf. Order via dm or via tutti.ch or ricardo.ch

Suche in Sandalen: Kreative Herausforderungen, um neue Lebensperspektiven zu entdecken (2025) ist ein Low-Content-Buch, das von Laura Paloma und Ezequiel Soriano verfasst wurde, mit einem Nachwort von Andreas Bülhoff.
Gemeinsam unternahmen Paloma und Soriano den Versuch, den Arbeitsprozess eines Low-Content-Buchautors nachzuahmen und eine Publikation zu erstellen, zu layouten und zu vermarkten, jedoch ohne Verwendung von ChatGPT. Soriano übernahm die Rolle des Chatbot-Assistenten und begleitete Paloma durch den Prozess des Schreibens und Layoutens. Paloma schickte Soriano “Prompts”, also Aufforderungen, auf die er im Stil und in der Sprache von ChatGPT antwortete. Das Ergebnis dieses Austauschs ist ein Sommer-Aktivitätsbuch für hochbegabte Erwachsene, das jetzt in englischer und deutscher Sprache über lokale schweizer Online-Marktplätze erhältlich ist.
Das gedruckte Buch Suche in Sandalen ist zu einem marktüblichen Preis von 5 €chf erhältlich. Das eBook kostest 2 €chf.

Sound on! 🎧
Artist and researcher Andreas Bülhoff @andreasbuelhoff joins us for “Reading Artists’ Books: Problems for Computer” on Thu, Dec 11, 2025, 1:30–5:00 pm CET.
He will present “Reading Writing Interfaces”– a series of “bookifications” of the interfaces of Apple TextEdit, Microsoft Word, and Adobe InDesign.
Interfaces are designed spaces of interaction. They not only represent and optimize workflows, but also control which forms of interaction are possible.
By representing all possible ways of writing, designing, reviewing, and interacting with text in visible buttons and menus, text editors, word processors, and layout software impose ideas and definitions of writing and text on their users.
His set of bookworks dissects the graphic representation of these assumptions by “demediating” them into the format of hardcover books as stable, well-practiced media.🔍
RAB#4 presents publications from the 1960s to today that critically reflect on computational thinking and computer-based production. Link in bio / @readingartistsbooks . 🔗
Organized by @reginee@wittenlab_stufu in coop. with @medienwerk.nrw & Centre for Advanced Study Access to Cultural Goods in Digital Change @uni_muenster .
Textbox Fun Facts 2/3
Textbox is about the relationship of text related standards and practices in screen and print media (what might be called the post-digital condition as textual condition). As a method, I often chose reenactments of artistic works as well as modes of thick description. The book performs some of these entanglements in its design, which enacts science publication normcore with a few minor tweaks that show rather than tell. One of these „gimmicks“ is the cover mimicking dev tools graphics for web design and content analysis with the inside of cover and backcover showing zoomed in pixels of an LCD screen. This, I hope, establishes the scene of media sensitive analysis, the aesthetics of interface elements and knowledge production of media usage that are discussed inside the book. (Also, there is one dead pixel on each flap! :)

Textbox Fun Facts 1/3
The epigraph at the beginning of the book is a quote from Billie Eilish‘s song ilomilo (2019) which I listened to feverishly during my daily commute from Neukölln to @stabiberlin where I was writing most of the manuscript. As the story goes, the song was inspired by the videogame of the same name, being an interesting example of content remediation/transformation through different media, or interpretation as something that is read into, enriching a medium not something that is taken from it, as I would argue. This was further enhanced when I realized that the line that spoke to me so much during the time was actually a mishearing, literally taking world for word. This homophone is very dear to me and its implications pop up here and there during the study, e.g when investigating the cultural implications of hello world program pedagogy or the relation of text/screen/reading in general.
