It aims to support youth pushed to the edge of formal education and entangled in structural social and cultural inequality. The researchers, artists, activists, and youth organizations developed process-oriented practices with young people, enacting new creative methodologies building on agentive possibilities to disrupt misrepresentation and invisibility. The book positions arts-based practices at the edge, examining complex systemic issues around youth disengagement and possibilities of collective creativity to navigate broken systems and inform futures. Enacting arts-based methodologies with young people at the edge through co-design shares navigation out of locked trajectories in collaboration with those who listen deeply as allies in their journey of re-presenting themselves to the world. The final section reflects on arts-based practices at the edge eliciting standpoints of young people at the edge.https://link.springer.com/

She booked The Damned's first show, served pints to Johnny Rotten, and attended a backyard gig from King Kurt.Squat life was sex, drugs and punk rock but it wasn't all fun and games. The Peanut Factory shows Deborah navigating a male-dominated scene, moving every few months and living with drug dealers, sex workers, people on the run, and working-class kids like her.Despite the chaos, the squatters were a family. They were kids creating their own rules. Making art. Living life on the fly. The Peanut Factory is an ode to the youthful rebellion of the 1970s and to London itself.
