Happy equinox!

In this newsletter, find a life update, some hyperlinks, and some music recommendations.

Life update

As planned, I left New York in early August to visit Iceland (photos), London (photos), Berlin, Portland (OR), and southern France. Iceland was beautiful, a land of fire and ice; I loved spending time in London with a beloved friend; Berlin was just as cool and chill as I remembered, with great people; it was a pleasure to reconnect with family and a friend in Portland; and spending time with my amazing colleagues in La Ciotat was like a dream. Here is a photo from each:

Hello there,

Today is either quite long or quite short, depending on where you live. How long the day feels, however, depends on how you feel - and I, for one, hope you and yours are doing well.

My music and mixes

I’ve got some new music for you: primarily, Alter Ego (stream), a harsh noise release, as well as a recording of last year’s Instagram Live performance. Next, I’m actively developing some new ambient-ish music, with the goal of a release sometime this year.

(Apologies for the duplicate email - had to change a setting to fix the links)

Hey kiddos,

I’m keeping busy and settling in back in NYC. The apartment is great - good roommates, easy access to groceries, and I’m two minutes’ walk from the best burrito I’ve ever eaten.

Hey weirdos,

We’ve survived four seasons! For me, the days got longer, and then shorter again. For you, perhaps the opposite. Either way, I have so enjoyed staying in touch with you. But it is a little more one-way than I’d like… How was the year for you? Hard, or soft? Hot, or cold? I’d love to hear about it. Just hit reply, whenever you get a chance.

The website

I’ve added a personal wiki for my website. It’s part of my effort to learn somewhat more publicly and collaboratively - and it’s still very much under construction, fwiw. The best page so far is either my (incomplete) travel log, my bullseyes “recipe,” or a list of fun bots.

Greetings!

Firstly: thank you. Friendship gets people through break-ups, and I have most certainly leaned on all of you. It hasn’t all been windows and rainbows - there have been many times I’ve felt down - but even in my loneliest moments I have been buoyed by the support of my friends. With time, and with your help, the “” is falling apart, and new and exciting things are coming together to take its place.

Hello friends!

Once again, today is either really long or really short, depending on where you live. I’m your host, Nathan Hewitt. Let’s meet today’s contestants:

Blog update

I wasn’t as active on my website over the last few months, but I did put together a piece called , an introductory perspective on prison abolition.

Hi there!

It’s the equinox - a vernal one up here in the states - which means you get an update on my life. It’s the second one, which makes this a trend, right?? Gimme some emotes in the chat if you want to hear more.

(Oh wait, this is asynchronous communication, you say? Well, then, I guess you’ll just have to email me some cool gifs and memes.)

Greetings, friends!

We made it one more quarter-turn around our warm little star. I’m writing from my parents’ place in Fishers, IN (don’t worry, we took precautions). I’m in the coldest room of the house, but I’ve got blankets and sweatpants so things are alright.

There’s a lot going on in the world right now, but I’m not really going to talk about it too much in this newsletter, if that’s alright. I think y’all know where I stand.
