Ship something imperfect.
The global Release Day is May twenty-ninth. Pick up the tool. Use it wrong. Share what you learn. Build a posse.
Release Day has passed. The work continues.
Slide 20 · what to ship
It doesn’t need to be perfect. Punk never was.
Write your three documents first — then build something that only you could build. Here are four shapes that work.
-
A zine
Eight pages. One subject. Photocopier aesthetic. Mail it to ten people you respect.
-
A short film
Ninety seconds. One shot. One idea. Music you didn’t make. Voice you didn’t train.
-
A photo series
Twelve frames. One refusal. Show what you didn’t keep alongside what you did.
-
The album
The one you’ve been sitting on for years. Use the tools wrong on purpose.
