I have to thank Nana Opoku for introducing me to this ‘grassroots TV-esque’ project. It offers seven channels of unique content curated by Jamil Baldwin and Tyler Benard. You can watch anything from experimental films and documentaries, to historic jazz concerts and vintage music videos.

This is a volume of writing, poetry and artwork, edited by artist Richard Porter for Pilot Press and including work by Eley Williams, Sarah Schulman and Verity Spott.
