Inspired by Walter Benjamin’s Arcades Project, these submissions form a growing tapestry of thought, emotion, and cultural memory.
“I cried and I cried and I cried all over.”
“Know your endoxas”
“closest to ideal. ”
“Nothing is easy. What looks easy is not easy. What looks hard is also not easy. Easy is nothing. Is everything hard? Somethings are liquid and somethings are gas but none of them are easy.”
