We refreshed History and Editors with material mined from the Fabricatorz Foundation site, Clément Renaud’s public writing, and Christopher Adams’s portfolio—so SCALE’s catalog reads as one continuous story from UCSD through Qi Hardware to today’s imprint.

What we added to History

The history page now traces threads that were scattered across host sites:

• OpenMoko → Qi Hardware → SCALE 2019 — the weekly program at scale.qihardware.org
• Cryptology (January 2020) — Shenzhen workshop and public exhibition at Qi Hardware’s ten-year mark, including Matt Hope’s Miner Arch, on the runway to COVID-19
• Qiware and the book era — Wuhan open call (February 2020), anthology design, Multiplier, Sensorium
• June 2024 — Qi Hardware and Qiware granted to Phi; SCALE Publishing remains with the Fabricatorz Foundation, which hosts this site

A new subsection documents Fabricatorz Foundation as host: open hardware, experimental art and technology, cultural preservation, and archive work (Open Clip Art, Libre Graphics Meeting, Artifaq, ArtCrimes).

What we added to Editors

Editor bios are expanded with SCALE-specific context:

• Jonathan Phillips — 2004 founding, 2019 weekly relaunch, Cryptology, book releases, Phi/Fabricatorz split
• Clément Renaud — computers as writing systems, China practice since 2008, Cryptology, Wuhan co-editing with Dino Ge Zhang, 2019 weekly appearance
• Christopher Adams — Taipei art production and code, Wuhan design (CC0, 2021), Multiplier essay, ArtCrimes / graffiti.org for Fabricatorz

Each editor still links to an independent site; the editors page is the SCALE-facing view.

Sources

Research drew on fabricatorz.org (RSS), clementrenaud.com (blog and project pages), and christopheradams.io (Atom feed at /feed.xml). Clément Renaud does not publish a public RSS feed; his archive lives on his site.

Still missing

The history page’s What’s Missing? section is unchanged in ambition: fill SCALE month by month and week by week until the present. If you hold Records, PDFs, or correspondence from the 2005–2018 gap or missing 2019 weeks, write up@scalepublishing.com—we can feed this publishing house together.
