really nice flipthrough of our new publication from one of the featured amazing artists, bLyThE m. cOrNfLoWeR! their experimental hybrid visual essay which explores "the topic of growing up trans in the rural sections/quadrants of the Middlewest, collaged & re-collaged."

heads up that a pretty small number of the first issue remain, which also means we're just about out of available bundles & subscriptions for the entire series at shop.nonmachinable.com i've set aside a small quantity of copies for the pop-up on May 9th, but otherwise, this issue is nearly sold out
