I first came across the @L0m3z Twitter account circa 2016 or 2017 and I was struck by how the things this person wrote in 140 characters were not simply tweets — they were great pieces of standalone writing. Fast forward to the current year and @L0m3z is one of the kings of anonymous Twitter. He…

I’ve slowly started accumulating some of my a/v ephemera and glitch art on YouTube. Feel free to stop by. Most of the music is by lifelong creative co-conspirator Brett V but some of it is from me.

#1: A General Theory of Collaboration: “Anyone who reads Vaclav Havel’s Power of the Powerless will be struck by Havel’s portrait of Czechoslovakia forty years ago—with its voluntary window-slogans; its endless parade of crusades; its inexorable machinery of human cancellation. Havel had the right strategy for the subjects of the total state. First, they must…
Pandemic Inventory
Seems like a lot of people are taking inventory of their pandemic experiences, so I will too. (As someone on Twitter recently joked, citing Garrison Keillor: Nothing happened to me, and now I’m going to tell you about it.) Like millions of others, I spend a lot of time alone these days.

“You were my best friend outside of Paris in 1918. You were wounded in the Ardennes and you died in my arms there. I’m glad you’re back in the world. You have a different face, a different name, but the soul shining out of your face is the same as my friend. Welcome back.”

Air Vandenberg
View this post on Instagram One of my mutant powers is the ability to identify album covers (from completely different eras and genres) that are spiritual cousins. In this case, 80s metal band Vandenberg and hipster French band Air. A post shared by MC (@tundra__michael) on Mar 27, 2019 at 10:38pm PDT
