New and Old

We’ve been buuuusy.

  1. We learned how to sew (machine) and finished our cyanotype zine (with Coco Spencer).

 
 
 
 

2. We made lots of new pins (and stickers!!), one of which is THIS.
They should all now be in the trusty webstore.

 
 
 

3. We did even MORE sewing, this time by hand, for the newest run of an oldie but goodie, hornet’s nest.

3. New little zine out, just for fun. We’re playing with different riso inks on different paper colors and learning lots. This one will only be available in person and as part of soon-coming grab bags!

4. Three down only one more to go! We just added CROP CIRCLES to the pack

5. Last but not least: you may recall that we started a weekly project that will go on until 2019. We are about to put out our THIRD poster! Yay! Thank you to Ryanaustin who has been extremely helpful and amazing in the process.

 
 

GOM

Wow! What a day. We had so much fun at Good Omen Market VI. We ate lots of Hella Vegan, we listened to lots of Late Feelings, we met Heavy Letters (our really cool table buddies), we played with a dog named Bucket, and we talked to lots of new friends about new projects and plans.
Thank you so much to Classic Cars and the great people of Good Omen for having us and putting together SUCH an incredible group of makers of ALL kinds. If you didn’t make it do NOT miss the next one!!

Oh! Thank you also to Undertone Collective, Floss Editions, Rad Breath, Luz Y Luna, Baby Girl Botanicals, and all the other vendors we got amazing things from!


Fuck It

So, as many of you may know the state of the world has been…. quite horrific. The (increasingly) nightmarish direction the country has been going is upsetting. But we will fight, we will vote, and we will not give up. This is not OK.

Now, for the day-to-day woes, we have stickers for that! Coco Spencer-designed stickers and posters are now in the webstore. Check ‘em out!

Inflammatory Affirmations

IT’S HERE!

Mxn-about-town (writer, curator, artist, barista), RYANAUSTIN DENNIS is combining our love for print with his love for words and we are making a 15 week poster project! Each poster is numbered (by its week), and will be released every Monday starting October 8th and continuing on through the rest of the year. The best part is the posters are FREE (if you’re Bay Area local ;))
Pick up locations are: Open Cafe and Wolfman Books both in Downtown Oakland. Get them while you can, supplies will not last!! All posters are 11x17 risograph printed on 67# gray bristol cover.
If you are not local, or would like the poster collection in full, we will plan to have a limited selection on sale in the webstore in the beginning of 2019.

Can’t wait for you to see them! We’re having a blast.

Press Play Fair all weekend

 
 
 

"Press Play is a book and music fair celebrating the merits of independent publishing and the dissemination of the arts through publication, recorded sound, and their expanded mediums."

We're starting off August with a jam packed weekend at Pioneer Works in Brooklyn.

Friday Aug 3, 7-10pm: Opening night concert with sounds from members of Girlpool, Palehound, Discwoman, and more

Saturday Aug 4, 12-11pm: Press Play Fair, featuring zines, books, panels, workshops, discussions

Saturday Aug 4, 7-10pm: Closing night concert with Sun Ra Arkestra

Sunday...we'll probably decompress at the beach if the rain ever stops

Mini Intro Zine Pack

Mollie's got something in the works.

Palmistry, Crop Circles, and Astrology are completed. What should be next? Pyramids? Handwriting analysis? Conspiracy theories??

The idea is: different paper colors, two different riso ink colors, all the same size/folding/layout but a small learning experience (for myself and hopefully also the reader!) $3 each and eventually a pack of 5 or so for $10.
