The Epoch of the R’s

The Epochs of the R’s

Last year, I wrote a piece titled ‘The Pestering Epoch’, describing and exploring ‘artificial taps on our creative shoulders’ for artists and tech demand overreach. It is now nestled on my Substack, but what I had originally wanted to write was a piece exploring what an epoch of replenishment might look like—a dream piece. I haven’t fully got there yet, and the piece still exists as note scraps here and there, but this is a list I’ve been toying with for ‘The Epochs of the R’s’: a list of wishful sorts:

After returning from residency in the awe-inspiring Peloponnese, Greece from the end of August to mid-September, all I can think about is reimagining and replenishment. I’ll be describing my time there in more detail soon. For now, reimagining and replenishment are where my imagination plays. Membranes of reimaging and replenishment(s).
