an exciting new project. cloak is invested in the digital text as an object and vice versa, a reciprocity at the heart of territory (and all texts, if we're being honest).
CLOAK is a new interdisciplinary publishing project focused on visibility, concealment, and surveillance.

Maps. I love them. Love reading them , love planning adventures. Love seeing how things relate topographically.

"Perhaps this is what makes Territory what it is, a certain attitude towards futility, a serious but playful impulse to turn things inside out, even if that only makes a bigger mess." Congrats to @TMiYL and @nickgreergkcin on a great run: themapisnot.com/issue-13-leg…
