Inspired by Foucault’s (1967/1986) notion of ‘heterotopia’, this note reflects on ephemera as a ‘site of otherness’ that challenges modes of thinking and organizing, predominating within the field of organization studies. It thereby illustrates how members of the editorial collective seek to integrate the idea of an affirmative ‘critique from within’ in their various activities and practices. The note suggests that, at ephemera, critical, challenging thought cannot be separated from the practices of its production. Thinking differently is for ephemera and its members irreducibly entangled with organizing and producing differently.
