Clearing the Station

BOXCARS: The has left the development part of its journey, and is currently moving through print and fulfillment. toy boxcar

Having started as a Kickstarter project ( BOXCARS: the Game), initial packaging is going to a large group of supporters first. After that, the game will go on sale on my Shop Page: SHOP at Big Cartel.

I haven't had an active shop in almost 7 years, so expect a slow trickle of new zine projects, some dead media projects and possibly some DIY kits. Expect all new material and content there over the next year.

Some of you may remember my old home on the internet: straytechnologies.com. While I still use that domain for various projects, my years of work in unusual electronic interfaces and DIY kits have gradually faded away. In the past year or two, my interests have shifted more toward writing and media—though I will always be indebted to the backwaters of dead media and forgotten technologies that inspired my earlier work.

In the past year, I have begun creating zines as part of my practice, which will serve as a launching point for my future projects. My passion for zines stems from their archaic production processes (xerography, printing, imposition, and hand binding), as well as their role as a mode of expression for all things non-pop.

As I work through future projects, I plan to use this site (messagelost.cc) as a sort of dev-blog for analog projects, making my process a bit more public. While thinking aloud on the internet isn't always the best choice, I have high hopes. At best, others will be intrigued enough to voice their own creativity. At worst, it'll make a reader or two scratch their heads and ponder life a bit.
