Marginalia #45
I discovered Weirdpunk Books last year while writing for Horror DNA. Something about their aesthetics and themes resonates with me. Sometimes it reminds me of the high/low friction in early David Cronenberg films (for example, ontology meets body horror). I feel like they are fulfilling some of the promises of the Dell/Abyss line that started … Continue reading Marginalia #45
Marginalia #44
I read my kids The Little House books when they were little. At some point, they got obsessed with the show and I couldn’t help the nostalgia of the theme song and watched a few episodes with them. I kept thinking, “Why do I know ‘Charlotte Stewart’?” Then it clicked. Mary X from Eraserhead! I … Continue reading Marginalia #44

If you liked Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky, then I highly recommend The Cat (1992). Lam … Continue reading Marginalia #42

A Marginalia and a Happy New Year
Happy New Year! This is Marginalia #41. I read this decades ago after Derek Bailey inspired a new way for me to approach instrumental playing. His recordings could be hard to find back then, but worth it when found. I loaned my copy to someone back then and never got it back. Finally got another … Continue reading A Marginalia and a Happy New Year
