The Fragmented Process

The Time Capsule series isn't meant to make sense (yet), and that's entirely the point. Trust me. Each zine is an artifact, a piece of something larger that won't reveal itself until 2033. Collect them, sit with them, and work through the puzzles and riddles hidden inside. The series rewards patience over instant gratification, which feels almost radical in itself. Some riddles won't be solvable until the final zine drops on August 1, 2033, and only then will the full picture come into focus. Once you've solved what's inside, you'll receive an invitation to the reception event, the moment where everything finally clicks into place. Think of each issue less as a standalone object and more as a key. You just don't know what door it opens yet.

Take your time with the puzzles. Don't rush through them. None of them will click immediately. Some will sit with you for months, and a few won't make sense until you're holding an issue you haven't even received yet. You will solve all of them by 2033. I promise.

Every issue of the Time Capsule series comes with its own soundtrack. Music has always been the fastest way into a mood, a memory, a feeling you can't quite name. So each zine has a playlist that lives alongside it, something to put on while you move through the pages. It's not background noise. It's part of the experience.

If you want in on the Time Capsule project, the first step is the newsletter. Sign up and you'll receive a copy of The Fragmented Process zine, this is where it starts.
