Frank by Firelight Bootleg
日本語 This booklet begins with a series of reproductions from Frank Lloyd Wright: The Houses photographed by firelight. In the dim light of the hearth the author considers an architecture of fire, a force that defined and plagued Wright’s mythology. There was the darkness of ritualistically rebuilding his home at Taliesin after increasingly tragic fires. But there was also a return to the elemental, seen in the warm yellow glow of light timber framing and wainscoting, the centrality of the hearth, the celebration of the domestic.

Blonde Girls
日本語 Blonde Girls is a novella cobbled together from the diaries of four girls and one queer. Sean Monahan builds a loose narrative out of their secrets (as well as his own). Over 25 chapters, Blonde Girls attempts to speak both personally and impersonally; to embrace disclosure, while leaving the audience in doubt of who exactly is doing the disclosing. Available only as a PDF on a USB drive, the project prioritizes the instant replication of a Copy command over the mechanical reproduction of a printing press, fetishizing information rather than objects.

Hey Come Here
日本語 "This comic is an attempt to address the visual motions of reading versus those of looking, which most comics inherently reconcile through fragmentation. I was embarking from a particular format that I’ve seen in some Gasoline Alley pages, presenting a singular image of a place, subdivided but not altered by panels, and characters move through each panel in the left-to-right fashion in order to tell a story. This format becomes problematic because the characters’ movements are beholden to reading’s logic at the exclusion of the space’s. A character’s presence in panel after panel, functions not to tell of the walker’s illogical perambulation but solely of time passing and resultant narrative developments. This comic attempts to use this format but remain equally faithful to both systems, to free the figure’s movement from the constraints of the (pictorially) contradictory left-to-right rule, but do so without breaking that rule or fragmenting the singular space. The format gradually complicates to accommodate for the walkers’ varied trajectories." - CS

They emphasize the generation loss found in the original sources, which were stills from different versions of the video available on-line.
