The Ideaspace by Yancey Strickler

Collector #7

Since 2017, the Ideaspace has been my outlet for exploring creative forms and sharing ideas. This release shares audio of four of my favorite interviews — with artist Hank Willis Thomas, economist Marianna Mazucato, and authors John Higgs and Eric Wargo — in a free .zip download.

Metalabel Squad

Collector #9

In June 2023, Metalabel put a yellow newspaper box on the street of the Lower East Side in NYC, and filled it up each day with copies of a free zine that celebrated a New Creative Era. This release documents that original release and makes the zine available for download. Join us!

Shantell Martin

Collector #70

Shantell Sans mixes variable axes for Weight, Italic, Informality, and Bounce to deliver a wide array of font styles, from friendly, readable, everyday typographic workhorses to striking, high-energy, experimental styles meant especially for animation. This is the story behind its inspiration and creation.

The Creative Independent

In 2018, The Creative Independent published our first zine, featuring the emotional and practical wisdom of Philip Glass, Yumna Al-Arashi, Taja Cheek, and others on how to make a living as an artist. This is a digital edition of that work.

L00bi

Collector #23

Here is a reality ~ 𝕃𝕠𝕠𝕓𝕥𝕠𝕡𝕚𝕒. This is the film. Sillyfunsilly visuals, cynicism, narcissism, avatars and music. (We are camouflaging Loobi's aching emptiness, as she endlessly searches for a sense of 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦/𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐚/𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞.) Loobtopia is fickle, noncommittal and vapid. IT IS SUCH FUN.
