My guest today is Mindy Seu: designer, professor, researcher, and editor of 'Cyberfeminism Index' in which “hackers, scholars, artists, and activists of all regions, races and sexual orientations consider how humans might reconstruct themselves by way of technology.” Featuring more than 700 short entries of multimedia activism, the Index is A rich resource for anyone interested in technology, feminism, and the intersection between the two.

After her book was recommended by the New York publicist Gia Kuan on a previous episode of this very podcast, I knew I wanted to speak more with Mindy about her broad range of interests and ideas. In this epsiode we cover everything from publishing as an art practice, to TikTok restocking videos, to the etymology of the word ‘ergonomic’. I hope you enjoy it!

My guest today is Recho Omondi, host of The Cutting Room Floor. You might have been following Recho’s podcast since its inception in 2018. Or you may have heard of Recho just recently, after a clip from her January 2024 interview with Yasiin Bey aka Mos Def went very, very viral.

Either way, Recho is a thinker and interviewer to have on your radar. I hope you enjoy the conversation

Today’s episode of Deep Read is a conversation with Anna Z Gray, writer and founder of Club Vintage, the self-described “department store of vintage sellers”. 

I met Anna several years ago when we were both living in New York City and Anna was writing ‘Things I Would Buy If I Didn’t Have to Pay Rent’ - a very funny shopping newsletter filled with beautiful pieces you  won’t find on an IG influencer’s Amazon storefront. These days, Anna still writes the newsletter and has also parlayed her distinctive taste into Club Vintage, which offers a platform for vintage sellers to sell their wares from stylish brick-and-mortar locations in New York and LA. 

Having long appreciated Anna’s idiosyncratic writing voice and curious approach to life, I was glad to have the opportunity to speak with her about consumerism, curation, cults, and much more.
