The Situationist Times was a magazine edited and published by the Dutch artist Jacqueline de Jong in the sixties. With only six issues, the Times became one of the most exciting and playful magazines of that decade, thanks to its multilingual, transdisciplinary, and cross-cultural exuberance. The never-realised seventh issue, destined to explore the game of Pinball, is the starting point of our collaboration with XPUB and artist Lídia Pereira. During the course of this semester, the students are tasked with imagining what the seventh issue could be if it were produced today, under the guidance of Lídia and the XPUB staff. Their works, gathered as a Special Issue,  will be launched at Page Not Found in April. To further this exploration, we are happy to invite you to a series of online lectures investigating how Situationism, games, and publishing reflect on each other.

We wholeheartedly thank Jacqueline de Jong for her kind interest and support in this collaboration.
