If you haven't heard Viktor Timofeev's recurring show Sibling Gardens you have some catching up to do. Looking now, there's seven episodes in the archive hosted by Viktor himself, in which artists who primarily work in visual media are invited to contribute recordings, songs, and sound collages for a mix compiled by Viktor.

Last week, Viktor handed the show over to Tomasz Kowalski for a guest appearance. The episode is played and sung in the form of a spontaneous outdoor ritual or folk operette, performed by Kowalski on digital glockenspiel/bells orchestra, classical dx guitar, midi harp, flute and voice accompanied by a loop choir. Each musical section is interrupted by Zuzanna Bartoszek's readings of her poetry, to which each subsequent fragment loosely refers. I loved Zuzanna's poems, and their cynicism and irony, in the context of Sibling Gardens—a show which links disparate artists across disparate fields and brings them together across time and space—became appropriately and pleasantly tangled. 

 

I put my phone away

Again, the day collapses upon me with all its weight

I surrender with joy

Some window opens

And a landscape is revealed:

Violet hills,

An awry cliff,

And something like a dying bonfire

This is my painting

Enlarged, printed, and hung just behind the window

It obscures the whole view

Except a gap at the bottom

A narrow strip with a street

With fucked-up cars

And fucked-up people

Organized by art writer and compulsive producer of relationships, Paige K.B., and including friends, "Killed It" is a collection of writing that never made the publisher's chopping block. They include a review of Jay Chung Q Takeki Maeda's Bad Driver that Artforum didn't think was PC (?), expcerpts from Bruno Zhu's dirty diary, a short story from Erin Leland, and more. In Paiges words, "Artists and writers are perhaps preternaturally disposed to producing their works regardless of places to put it. Sometimes there's an overflow, and no one really knows just what to do with it. Or, you just can't reach people sometimes, and if they don't get it, then forget it! Interesting or promising work can get shot down, shelved, sabotaged, scraped off the plate, killed before it could live. Shit happens. But in the spirit of ars longa, vita brevis, a few voices here gather together our rejects and unpublishables with a view towards sparking a little afterlife"

Kieran Press-Reynolds produced an audio essay/guided tour of zoomer hall of mirrors genres, glitch-hop and Robloxcore. That segment came out on MPR last October and last week he published a piece in the NYT on the Robloxcore side of things. You should R it but TLDR: some kids who met on Roblox ended up creating an absurd and gnarly sounding (but totally loving ,caring, and queer) rap scene for themselves. It recalls a conversation I had with Cade Diehm of New Design Congress on how the design of these social platforms (the UI/UX, their internal economies, the depth of interactions permitted between users) can make for some unintended and sometimes beautiful outcomes. We're familiar with the less pretty places these sorts of social spaces can take us, but this little world feels alright.

Full acknowledgement that it sucks when the NYT catches on to fun stuff kids are doing, but these artists are 16...they'll figure the next thing out soon enough. Also congrats to Kieran who just graduated from Fordham :)
