Oldie, but a goodie. One of the first Baltimore Guerrilla Suspension Crew’s shoots in the now infamous Graffiti Alley in Baltimore.
Still one of my favorite suspensions

The JF Weissner Mausoleum. If you’re in one of the larger Baltimore rural movement cemeteries, you’ll quickly become acquainted with the name. The Weissners were a prominent brewing family in 1800′s Baltimore, and they spent lavishly on their family memorials. The one in Loudon Park is over thirty-five feet tall.

TW: Rape, violence, police abuse and murder
This is important. PLEASE WATCH & SHARE THIS. This is an interview we conducted with Baltimore Black Panther and community leader Reverend Annie Chambers about the murder of her grandchildren by the police, and the long history of violence against Black people in Baltimore.
This interview was conducted back in 2012. I blame myself for the video cutting out after 47 minutes. The camera died and I didn’t have replacement batteries. Someone in the Baltimore area should reach out and follow up with Reverend Chambers if possible.
What we’re seeing in Baltimore today is the culmination of years decades centuries of continuous violence and oppression against Black people at the hands of police and White supremacy.
A friend of mine/organizer in Dallas is trying to get the funds together to make it to Baltimore.
Please share and contribute if you can!
Chaaz. BLACK. Queer. Activist.
Make this short. I’m trying to raise funds for a plane ticket to Baltimore. I wanna go stand in solidarity and fight alongside my People- Black people. Period. I’m a community organizer from Dallas, Texas and trying to get there by any means to be of use and support to community. I WILL DIE FOR BLACK PEOPLE!!!*The ENTIRETY of funds will be used for travel expenses to Baltimore & for food and looking for lodging with preferably Baltimore area QPOC.
Also, if you know anyone who has a couch to spare…he’s a great guy, and a pleasure to know.

One of many things I like about being an illustrator is helping to spotlight good organizations through assignments. I hadn’t heard of Baltimore Algebra Project before last Sunday when I drew this for Baltimore City Paper. Check out their site here http://www.baltimorealgebraproject.org/ I’m donating!

The City of Baltimore is founded by the Maryland General Assembly, and instantly regretted.
Zomes,Variations Vol. 1
A few weeks ago I shared a Daniel Higgs cassette, and this week we’ll take another Lungfish member’s project for a spin. Zomes’ Variations Vol. 1 was released by Imminent Frequencies, a c30 that is limited to 300 copies. These recordings were captured between 2010 and 2012, and opt to leave out the drum machine beats found on Asa Osborne’s LPs with Holy Mountain and Thrill Jockey. The resulting “astral melodic keyboard passages” are more minimalist journeys leads by one of the most peaceful and awe-inspiring artists your ears will have the pleasure to meet. Order the tape here.

Baltimore Tape Club Vol. 3

PEN PAL:In A Crowded Station
It’d be weird if we listened to cassettes only from Baltimore. There are folks we write letters to or trade tapes with on the interwebs, and it’d be rude not to share some of those gems every now and again. Gather ‘round for Baltimore Tape Club’s first Pen Pal post.
I first visited Mississippi Records when on a brief stint with Future Islands out west through Portland, around the corner from where Jason Urick resided. Jason was opening the show and our host, and had nothing but amazing things to say about the shop and label.
Mississippi Records has a truly magical mixtape series spanning gospel to rocksteady to a collection of auto-tuned pop via Brazil and everything in between. In A Crowded Station is volume 30, a soul and R&B exploration named in honor of Mask Man & the Agents’ song.
This tape purrs gently, with plenty of answers to midsummer’s heat-induced cravings via deep cuts of cosmic soul. It may bring you to tears, or it may have you dancing wildly upon your front stoop, but either way snag it here or go visit Mississippi Records.
Welcome to Baltimore Tape Club, a new series that dives into cassettes dubbed within Baltimore, Maryland. In the coming weeks we’ll share sounds from Zomes, Rod Hamilton, Beyond Say, Weekends, Daniel Higgs, Will Redman, Vlonde, Holy Ghost Party, Raindeer, Wing Dam and many more, but in this volume we’ll take a listen to new tapes from Zachary Utz, Other Colors, Smoke Bellow and Horse Lords.
Gather round for Vol. 1 on Impose, or follow here for more.

PMF VII Weekend Highlights: Exhibitions
Jorge Galvan, “Chicharron” Last weekend, Open Space hosted their seventh annual Publications and Multiples Fair, a smorgasbord of DIY press, affordable artwork, and booths from artist-run spaces around the country. I posted a slideshow of the fair, but also went to about a dozen galleries neighboring the Baltimore Design School (site of PMF VII) and Open Space’s brick-and-mortar location. Below…
An Artist’s Guide to the Democratic Primaries
In this increasingly heated primary contest, two of the issues that impact our readers most haven’t exactly been hot-button topics. Candidates rarely discuss funding for the arts or affordable housing in the nation’s rapidly-gentrifying cities. New Yorkers head to the polls Tuesday, April 19th, and the art school meccas of Providence, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New Haven will be casting their…
