DARPAzine is a co-edition between the collective DARPA and La Poinçonneuse.
The collective DARPA was formed on the occasion of the creation of the show "la disparition des lucioles". Its members are Christophe Menier, Raphaël Van Keulen, Simon Verjans, Alessandro De Pascale and Sarah Testa.

Since 2015, Florian Huet has followed DARPA in several stages of creation. From these moments emerged a series of drawings and sketches, this material served as a basis for the visual work of DARPAzine.
The texts have been selected and / or written by DARPA members.
This results in a heterogeneous material.

The show "la disparition des lucioles" has its roots in political protest and the uncompromising questioning of technology (implying that since the industrial revolution politics is intimately linked to the place of technology and the machine).

DARPAzine testifies to these reflections by the linking of texts, drawings and quotations as a patchwork that wants to be an anti-manifest (non-manifest? Smurf-manifest?): articulated thoughts meets anecdotal, banal anecdotes. If the stake is the expression and the development of a thought, it seems decisive not to make the economy of its waste, and consequently to give a place to the derisory and the daily life which saw it being born.

10 A4 sheets folded in 2 and stapled form the DARPAzine, it was made by hand.
