A while back, @the___figurehead discovered @g.z.m.p.l.u ’s poetry collection 𝙰𝚞𝚛𝚎𝚕𝚒𝚊, which inspired his latest release, 𝚃𝚑𝚒𝚜 𝚒𝚜 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚘𝚞𝚗𝚍 𝙸 𝚖𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝚠𝚑𝚎𝚗 𝙸 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚊𝚙𝚙𝚎𝚊𝚛. I had the chance to create the cover art and design for its digital and physical release, including a limited run of 50 tapes. What seems like a straight line is anything but—just a few intersecting paths that somehow led here. 🔀

The publication 𝐀 𝐌𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐬 explores the environments we design and create in. It brings together visual explorations shaped by a material understanding of digital processes, viewing tools and humans not as separate entities but as entangled actors that shape one another. Part archive, part process, part material reflection, it is loosely bound, layered, and open to reordering and reinterpretation. ⊹ ࣪ ˖
