I’m interested in making a system where authorship becomes more complicated, but also more tangible.” Artist, publisher, & image-maker Jesse Draxler Jesse Draxler discusses his new project TONGUE OF ANGELS, an 18-track collaborative album that creates & explores new systems of authorship, access, & distribution- link in bio - federalprisoner Modern Matters - Jesse Draxler photo by Matthew Reeves Matthew Reeves

Podcaster and film historian Karina Longworth Karina Longworth talks with Payton McCarty-Simas Payton McCarty-Simas about “The Bisexuals,” her latest season of “YOU MUST REMEMBER THIS,” her show about the secret and/or forgotten history of Hollywood’s first century. “The Bisexuals” focuses on “the scandalous life of Libby Holman, Cincinnati-born torch singer of the 1930s. This racially ambiguous, openly bisexual party girl, friends of the likes of Tallulah Bankhead and Montgomery Clift, made headlines after the sudden death of her first husband, Smith Reynolds, heir to a vast to***co fortune, in 1932. Immediately smeared in the media, Libby’s life became a public spectacle akin to something straight out of CHICAGO.” Link in bio. youmustrememberthis - Karina Longworth photo by Lee Jameson Lee Jameson

“In every one of Emily St. John Mandel’s Emily St. J. Mandel novels, there’s someone on the verge of leaving. We meet them on a precipice, drawn to the idea of escape - whether from a lackluster relationship or a fulfilling one; whether in pursuit of a concrete concept of a different life or just the hope of one. It’s fitting, then, that her newest novel, her seventh, is titled EXIT PARTY, and the one thing being escaped has grown quite drastically in scale - it’s our universe itself.” Read the full review of EXIT PARTY by Nirica Srinivasan nirica - link in bio Alfred A.

“Every drawing is like a choreography of visual fragments. There is a lot of research behind every piece, but also a lot of intuitive decisions during the process. What guides the way that I select, organize, and articulate visual elements from my research for every piece is a curiosity toward a specific set of feelings and ideas that I want to better understand.” Read our conversation between artist Laïla Mestari Laïla Mestari & Sivan Lavie 🌏🍄🍎 𝐒𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐋𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐞’𝐬 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 🍎🐚🌏 - link in bio - shown here: “Constellations” 2026, colored pencil on paper; marquetry frame with mother of pearl inlay, 44 1/8. x 45 in.
