"Cuttingly" is a great way to describe the feeling of hearing about arts funding in Europe. Excited to hear more about Post-Obsolescence next month at MdW! (A note -- MdW is the shortened name of Midway International Airport in Chicago, I think that's where it comes from...) A great write-up as usual, Robert!
Yes! Someone else explained the midway thing too—didn't realize it had its roots in Chicago, I thought it was just a wandering festival. We hope to have some kind of printed excerpt from the book for the fest! Though this will be a chaotic month.
So much to love about this post, thanks for sharing the EU/US differences around funding, riso competition for print-for-hire, etc. And the white pages idea, wowowow! P.S. the email gets clipped in Gmail after the Smyth sewer. Shame for folks to have to click through to see all your footnotes kekeke

The footnotes! The footnotes! As soon as I learned this was an option I knew I needed to have footnotes.
