Another Sunday, Another Naive Weekly — Observations From The Internet Wilderness.
Sunday, October 23, 2022.

Good morning,

We arrived safely in Tenerife late yesterday evening. It’s too soon to share any travel reports, as we haven’t seen much besides the flickering light of human activity in the night during our car ride from the airport to our hotel and the nearby beach where we rested in the morning.

From tomorrow we’ll be exploring the entire island. Ana is here for work. She is asked to photograph the environment and the poetry hidden between the development projects. If you want a travel report, consider ordering a personal postcard.

With care,

Kristoffer


Roadside Flowers

Forest Green is color poetry.

Careful Words is a little bit more than a thesaurus.

Castles is floating, rotating, and colorful.


Field Notes

Kernel — How Do We Get There?

Kernel Magazine published all their second-issue contributions. I prefer the submissions that experiment in styles, such as Jasmine Wang’s poem and Adora Svitak’s short fiction story. If you want to learn more about Kernel, I recommend the conversation with their editors in Zine Munch.

Preservation, not Perfection

At first glance, the People’s Graphic Design Archive appears random. And while it is true that a wide representation is encouraged, this in-depth interview with the project caretakers reveals their rich consideration and that the randomness is intentional.


WWWonderful Awards

It is time for the final round of our friendly celebration of roadside flowers. We vote between Pentad World and Town.

See last week’s result and follow the celebration here. Ps. on the occasion of a tiebreak, I draw between the two sites.

Hi, I’m Kristoffer and you have just read Naive Weekly — Observations from the Internet Wilderness.

Last week this letter was sent to 1311 people. Twenty-seven are crazy enough to chip in every month/year to support me making time to write. Logo by Studio Hollywood. Photograph by Ana Santl.
