Kayo Denda from Rutgers University in New Jersey wants to bring cartonera books to a global audience. The books, which started in Argentina as a response to an economic crisis, are handmade from salvaged materials. Denda sees them as a way to promote communication through a hands-on activity. “It’s a different modality of communication,” she said. The Cartonera standing committee is working on a website as well as seeking collaborators.
