Anonymous Press (Α–Π) is a platform for the publication of so-called “zines” whose respective content is the product of keywords, which are fed into the system over the Internet in order to become virtually autonomous in an automated search process. On the website of the project it is referred to as a “self-sufficient publishing platform” whose publications are a byproduct of an individual and a database, i.e. Google ImageSearch. Human authors define the topic, but the content and the form is generated from the most relevant images found online. Each publication is added to a public library.
