"the discontinuities of the world are manmade; that the initial discovery of the human is that it is human, not animal; that disjection from the womb is the first indication of discontinuity" @amhcrane87 up at @ACrashing ❤️

Before Musée d'Orsay was an art museum, it was a train station. Between those eras, artist Sophie Calle squatted in its ruins. I wrote about an art exhibition in which she documented her time there. @ACrashing did something really special with it: alwayscrashing.com/current

We've gotten some great work for this call so far, but our submissions pile has been a little--and I mean this in the nicest way possible--dude-heavy. We'd love to see more work from non-dudes, if you happen to describe yourself that way alwayscrashing.com/submissio…
