Editions of You (www.editionsofyou.com) is an ongoing project curated by the Popular Music Research Unit at Oxford Brookes University. Its aim is to celebrate and showcase self-publishing and self-releasing musicians and the handmade and unique editions and releases they create. It explores the history, politics and creative processes of these forms of self-publishing in the music and arts worlds; providing an opportunity to celebrate the cultural lineage of these forms whilst creating a forum for relevant contemporary musicians and artists to present their work.
 
We are currently working in collaboration with promoters Oxford Contemporary Music (www.ocmevents.org) and the O3 Gallery Oxford (www.o3gallery.co.uk) to programme a month long festival of events at the gallery which includes:
 
Exhibition of handmade music editions and releases 
Saturday 26th March – Sunday 24th 
April Handmade Independent Music and Music Zine Fair 
9th April, 11am – 6pm
…and assorted live gigs, performances and happenings
