｢素敵な音色をいつもアリがとう｣ "Thank you always for your wonderful music." 今日6月4日は… #虫の日#insectday

I have always loved and learned from @wendymac’s work. In the very early days of the pandemic, she was one of the first artists to offer free virtual daily drawing practice to everyone — especially kids — sheltered in place. Posting her drawing practice as a small act of seeing. It’s been a horrific week plus. As a generous host, to practice protection as well as connection, I’m turning the comments off for a period. Social media is creating even more separation. One antidote to horror is connection. Sending love. Thank you, @wendymac for reminding us to see each other. Not what we expect to see. But the stranger in front of us. Via @nytopinion

if you know me, you know that #richardpowers is one of my favorite authors. his pulitzer-prize winning novel #theoverstory was a formative text for me, one that has informed so much of my work with @atmos. we were already working on volume 06: beyond when i saw that his next book was about an astrobiologist looking for life in space as well as the meaning of it here on earth. i knew that it would be a perfect fit for the issue. i read it in two days and i was right. the stars aligned and we were able to have a conversation about it, one that left me with a single word: #bewilderment. link is in outer space which is to say my bio ✨ special thanks to @michael.hauptman for the out-of-this-world photos and for the amazing team that brought this issue to life: @jakesarge @ranatoofanian @lolabe @anthonybones_ @tessaforrest @yessfun @mgregory7 @michellegolden. more to come 🪐
