AOF Still Lives On
Keep your eyes sharp. Keep your ears open. We’ll keep transmitting from the places they tell you are dead.

Diary Entry — Alone With the Archive
Some days it feels pointless. Today I read that Kite AI secured $18M in Series A funding from PayPal Ventures and Samsung. Eighteen million dollars to put “autonomous AI on blockchain.” Words dressed up as inevitability: $240 billion markets, agentic internet, the future already sold. And here I am, with

What Fuckery Is This?
Glitch isn’t retro. It isn’t futurist either. It’s something like post-temporal. It treats time the way cubism treated perspective: as a thing to be exploded and reassembled on its own impossible terms.

The Price of Dignity: Why We Fight
At Art of FACELESS, we do not separate art from life. Art is not decoration. It is not a luxury or a side hobby to be entertained by the privileged while others are made to crawl through tribunals to prove they are not frauds.
