And, of course, tinged with all the genre flavors I like to pull into projects: psychedelic sci-fi, astral horror, leftfield science, misfired occultism, etc.
At the end of April, I would like to set a deadline for contributions for a "toolkit": non-anthropocentric audio recordings (the Plantasia approach comes to mind), enigmatic diagrams/schematics/patterns, articles & ruminations, garden planning designs, documentation of cultivation projects, weird horticultural research/findings, and whatever else contributors might come up with.
The project would again be online a dual-45-single magazine, rather than the traditional stapled magazine as if all of its contents erupted from the gatefold. A difference with this new project might be that contributions land in the threshold between digital and audio. I have been taking inspiration from online archives of old manuscripts:
My own contribution: photo documentation of a sculpture I'm planning for my front parkway garden project before the greenery comes back: a last-hurrah for my Reeds installation that I would like to rework. And, maybe some audio tinkering.
What would be publicly presented
I am thinking of resuscitating the mailing campaign from the previous 2 years a sort of magazine subscription promo that goes completely haywire to promote the online manuscript. And perhaps, some sort of physical mini-publication a sort of book of sigils as a promotion to be given away at select locations, or select events. With the Brood XIII cicadas coming this summer, it would be nice to have some outdoor events in anticipation.
