published a feature on The Western Lands series:

Announcing the White Leaves Residency Program!

The White Leaves Artist Residency Program annually awards 2-3 artists the unique opportunity to concentrate on their work in the isolated, rural environment of the high desert landscape near El Rito, New Mexico. Open to artists working in all mediums who wish to develop or complete a project of their choosing, residency length ranges from 10-21 days during either a Fall (Sept-Nov) or Spring (April-June) session. Accommodations include a small private cabin with solar power and potable water, kitchen and shower access with additional outbuilding workspaces available based upon the needs of the artist. Residents also receive an edition of archival pigment prints of work that was created during their stay (sponsored by Frontier Fine Art Printing).

Saturday

For the month of October I'll be touring across the United States with a 35mm slideshow of my work,

alongside underground legends (and dear friends), Jeff Zagers & Russian Tsarlag. I'm really thrilled

to spend so much time with these guys on the road and to get to travel across the country again.

Anything is possible when you're in love.

Please swing through and say hi:

Zak M. - "Gravois Ave. Mango Prom"

America's heartland crooner delivers with a full length album of twisted outsider organ, dexterous lyrics and subtle tape manipulations. Drafted with the faint of heart in mind, these songs'll slowly drag you through the dried leaves & safely return you to the loveseat of your dreams (without breaking curfew). 34 minutes long. Full color artwork. Purple shell cassettes, painstakingly dubbed in real-time for the sake of hi-fidelity. Edition of 50 copies.

Jeremy Kennedy & Yosuke Kitazawa - "agenda (in bold)"
Electronic interventions & deconstructed guitar passages intermingle within a state of hypnagogia in this Los Angeles pairing's debut album. Discerning patience and deep listening are accentuated throughout the duo's improvisational reporting from the front line. 29 minutes long. Full color artwork. Dubbed in real-time for fidelity's sake. Edition of 50 copies.
