The International Necronautical Society

The International Necronautical Society (INS) was founded by novelist Tom McCarthy in 1999, and comprises an amorphous and often occluded network of writers, artists, philosophers, and others. Surfacing through publications, media interventions, artworks, and live events, the INS constantly reiterates (or reenacts) its First Manifesto commitment to “map, enter, colonise and, eventually, inhabit” spaces that open up around the sign of death.
