Ink Cypher

Ink Cypher is the home of our commissioned writing; it's where you'll find exclusive, original features and long form writing on Hip Hop dance from a suite of international voices.

​

Some of the people in Ink Cypher are established writers, some are writing in English for the first time and for others this is the first time they've been commissioned.

In round one there's 26 commissioned writings from people based in Taiwan, Canada, Ghana, Scotland, Singapore, France, Greece, Dubai, USA, England, Germany, South Africa, Indonesia and Turkey.

​

A cypher is a space of dialogue and a place to build energy; so for round two we wanted people to read the essays that we published and write something that answered, responded to or challenged what had been written from one (or more) of the round one authors. This is an Ink Cypher.

​

In round two there's 15 commissioned writings from people based in Nigeria, Argentina, Australia, England, Ghana, USA, Spain, Brazil, Cuba, Ireland and France.

​

The order in which you read information can affect the interpretation of what comes after it; if you want a route through these incredible round one texts here's Reading Route 1 and Reading Route 2. We'd love to hear from people who have read all the works and what order they read them.
