2021 – PRESENT
I collaborate with illustrator Shreyas R. Krishnan to curate and maintain a zine collection featuring critical investigations in design and illustration in formats that are designed and illustrated. The project consists of an archive held in special collections at Washington University in St. Louis (WashU), a reading room at the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts, and a traveling exhibition.
Our first exhibition, Doing Things With Images, was held at mica Pinkard Gallery in October 2022.

Shreyas and I designed the tl;dr brand identity based on the risograph inks available at WashU Sam Fox School and a custom alphabet made from pieces of tape and improvisational drawings. In addition to our exhibitions, we design risograph-printed catalogs to keep an inventory of our acquistions.
