Becoming Press is an independent Berlin-based publisher focused on contemporary critical and theoretical writing at the crossroads of philosophy, art, culture, and technology. It emphasizes so-called minor literature - short, intense, and experimental texts that often go beyond traditional academic and literary formats. Its publications cover topics such as capitalism, embodiment, identity, artificial intelligence, semiotics, and current social crises. Authors create essays, manifestos, and hybrid forms that promote critical thinking and theoretical curiosity. The press caters to readers interested in unconventional and relevant reflections on today’s world.
