Podcast
In Ep. 7 of 'Thought Pieces', Collier Schorr and Angel Zinovieff give an intimate reading of 'Notes on Tricks', exploring the roles we inhabit as the photographer and the photographed, and drawing on themes of closeness, sexuality, and the rescued relics of our childhoods.
In Ep.5 of 'Thought Pieces' Ben Lerner reads his expansive prose poems from his new book ‘Gold Custody,’ which take us on a perambulatory journey through time, personal mythologies and the unraveling of the mysterious languages we inherit.
In Ep. 4, writer Lynne Tillman uncovers the hidden histories of childhood, the relentless passing of time, and a very particular vision of the misspent American youth of a boy named Roy.
In Ep.3 of ’Thought Pieces’, Paul Graham looks back on his 1980s work based in unemployment offices across the UK, reflecting on the role of social care, Thatcher’s government, and the changing status of documentary photography in the public imagination.
In Ep.2 of 'Thought Pieces' filmmaker, writer and photographer RaMell Ross reads ‘Renew the encounter,’ from But Still, It Turns, edited by Paul Graham. Part meditation and part manifesto, Ross’ text invites us to deconstruct our relationship to photography and race through dazzling, urgent prose. This essay was originally published in Film Quarterly.
In the first of this brand new podcast from MACK, poet Eileen Myles reads their essay 'Vanishing,' which was published in 'The Shabbiness of Beauty' by Moyra Davey and Peter Hujar. Having pasted photographs by Davey and Hujar on the walls of their New York City apartment, Myles begins an exploratory piece that spans the unrelenting passing of time, the remarkable visual dialogue between these two artists and their shared visual language.
