A residential building in Downtown Brooklyn advertised rentals

So-called “management fees.” Listed apartments already rented. Off-market exclusives dangled like bait.

Surreal Pinscreen Animations Bring Kafka, Gogol & Mussorgsky to Life (1933–1972)

What do Franz Kafka, Nikolai Gogol, and Modest Mussorgsky have in common? They stand alone among their peers for their darkly humorous sensibilities, fascination with the grotesque, imaginative takes on cultural traditions, and a predisposition for the proto-surreal.

defector.com/everything-is-content
