In 2012, CAC Brétigny and Tuamaturgia published Unconsitituted Praxis, a book collecting his writing, interviews, and performance reviews. Anthony Iles and Mattin are currently in the final stages of editing the volume Abolishing Capitalist Totality:
What is To Be Done Under Real Subsumption? (Minor Compositions). Urbanomic published his book Social Dissonance in 2022. Mattin is part of the bands Billy Bao, Regler and Al Karpenter and has over 100 releases in different labels worldwide.
