P L S magazine takes us into group dynamics conducive to the experience and learning of joy. Through festive, creative and social endeavours, this issue highlights the role of sociocultural, educational and collective practices in art history. It particularly invites us to reflect on the notion of participation in creation. Each contribution encourages us to perceive the ever-growing scope of collective joy—a joy that has to do with our capacity to affect and be affected, and to actively take part in an expansion of collective power that makes new practices and new worlds possible.
