I have been making more efforts to explore references without meddling of algorithms. Goodbye Pinterest. Goodbye endless "recommended for you" scrolling. I booked an appointment at the archive library of this Japanese streetwear brand called Vowels in NYC. The creative director has over 2000 fashion, culture, photography, and design related magazines and books that spanned over 4 decades. I was able to choose books out of the 200 or so that were out in the store, and they had scanners. I had the time of my life. I felt like a researcher, a real curator. This is small first step in rebuilding my critical eye & references free from digital interference.
