We are delighted to present LOU REED’S NEPHEW, a 10-part series featuring collages created by HILOBROW friend Jim Hanas as illustrations for his “wickedly smart, highly entertaining” 2023 email serial of the same title.
How can this be? Is it because even with all the freedom and randomness I can muster, there remains a narrow structure of the self – a transcendental unity of apperception – that restricts me to a thin band of obsessions and concerns? A structure, like the one Merleau-Ponty describes in The Structure of Behavior, that makes my handwriting look similar on a blackboard and on paper, even though completely different muscles are involved?
