GIVE IT UP: Karlie

One in a series of posts about Josh Glenn and Rob Walker’s latest object-oriented storytelling project. GIVE IT UP’s exhibits and events (in Kingston, NY) will run from August 15 through September 10.
Karlie Flood is a 27-year-old writer and multimedia artist born and raised in Kingston, New York. She started her writing project, Reminders To My Future Self, in 2020; it has evolved into a line of journals, postcards, stickers, and clothing for her family’s store Rewind Kingston. She works as a Director of Creative Strategies for a record label and is currently writing her first book.
For the GIVE IT UP project, Karlie is reluctantly willing to be persuaded to give up… her broken barrette. GIVE IT UP will publish Karlie’s nonfiction narrative about this object in August — at which time we’ll invite you to participate in the effort to persuade her!
