In 2017, Grapefruit Are Not The Only Bombs (the mythical book mentioned in The JAMs’ book 2023: A trilogy) provided advice to 23 people
In 2023, GANTOB (the re-enactment – a participatory arts project) answered 23 people’s questions in her first book
In 2024, GANTOB3 (the person) is seeking 23 Questions from 23 people
These questions can be on any topic
If your question is selected, it will be shared on social media (gantob2023 on Insta/X). You can decide whether your name is mentioned in the post
GANTOB3 is looking for volunteers to help answer these questions. If there is not a volunteer for a specific question then GANTOB3 will supply/ source an answer herself
The answers will be collated in a series of pamphlets. These pamphlets will be part of GANTOB’s 52 Pamphlets. An individual “Q&A” pamphlet may contain:
- an answer to one question
- multiple answers to a single question
- answers to multiple questions
People asking or answering a question (if their question or answer is selected) will receive a copy of the pamphlet by post and a copy of the third GANTOB book (52 Pamphlets, January 2025). There will be a limit of one book per household. There will be no more than 52 copies of the 52 Pamphlets book. Copies will be assigned on a first come, first served basis
