Is Not Music.

SERVICE
Editorial Design

Issue 01 explores the culture and significance of artist-run spaces, examining the communities that emerge outside traditional institutions. Combining long-form writing, photography, and editorial design, the publication features an essay by Jesse Rifkin on New York City's DIY performance scene, an introduction to the River Church—where Pegg recorded their debut album with producer Bartees Strange—and Is Not Listening, a shared collection of music that has shaped the collective's listening over recent months. The result is a publication that documents the places, people, and practices sustaining independent culture.

Issue 02 is an editorial publication celebrating artists whose influence extends far beyond conventional notions of success. Bringing together essays, interviews, original artwork, and ephemera, the issue reflects on enduring creative legacies through contributions from Owen Pallett, Taja Cheek (L'Rain), eli berry, Jesse Rifkin, and others. Designed as both a cultural document and collectible object, the publication positions these artists as enduring points of reference—creative north stars that continue to shape the landscape long after the spotlight has moved on.
