Dave Rothschild dedicated Healing to “all the clinicians and doctors out there who have compassion and honest intention to help their patients heal.” It’s a strange book to be dedicated to doctors, sorta, what with the pictures of forests and suburban-looking parks, mostly in the fall and winter, and it’s really a zine mostly concerned …

Romy van der Burgh – ‘Through the Timeless Windows of Havana’
Romy van der Burgh’s Through the Timeless Windows of Havana is/was the first second of Let’s Explore magazine‘s occasional journal series.* The zine combines van der Burgh’s journalistic account of her late 20-teens visit with photographs she made there, and works something like one of those long photo essays from Life magazine or something, without …

Zach Klein, Steven Leckart, Noah Kalina – ‘Cabin Porn’
I don’t recall where I first heard about the ‘Cabin Porn‘ blog. It was probably through a podcast or blog or something, and probably related to Noah Kalina, who came onto my radar back in 2012 sometime, when his “Everyday” project update hit and got a bunch of press.* Back in mid-2019, I think, I …
