First and foremost a critical journal of talent. A solid and quiet momentum, a celebration of humans performing the life affirming labor of music, art & design, and space-making. In an epoch of elusive origins, muddled phenomenology, here are insightful glimpses into the purposes and practices of beautiful, inspiring people, profiles in flux, imperfect futures, narratives you didn’t know you needed 

The honest human story is, was, and for the foreseeable future will be the show. It’s the thing that matters.

We publish deeply revealing, thought provoking profiles and interviews with first and foremost individuals, artists, communities, spaces, moments in time with true eccentrics and lifers … stories and questions that re-center the flawed, yet profoundly inspiring human stories bubbling under the surface, as an alternative to reductionist narratives, politically-neutered, facile logics running rampant in the cultural sectors.
