SPECIAL: Mark Mothersbaugh x Beatie Wolfe on "Postcard Playbox"

Join this movement and potentially a future radio show by making and mailing your post art to 8760 Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90069. Alternatively if you’re in LA drop in on one of our pop-up postcard making events. Head to www.postartfordemocracy.com [https://www.postartfordemocracy.com/] for all the info about this campaign celebrating USPS, our right to vote and the power of art with support from The Broad Foundation and dublab.

This collective post art campaign, originally launched in lockdown ahead of the 2020 election, stirred tens of thousands of people to create and contribute to the public art movement, supporting USPS in the process, and all the while reminding and mobilizing people to vote. Mothersbaugh and Wolfe received postcards from every part of the U.S. (and across the world) with the ever-growing collection first exhibited at the Rauschenberg Gallery before a selection of the art went into the Smithsonian. Such a chord was struck that post art is still being received today four years on! As democracy and our right to vote still hangs in the balance, Postcards for Democracy invites everyone and anyone to create a piece of mail art and send it in to become part of this public art demo, with an exhibition and book to follow. With the aim of the campaign being to encourage as many people as possible to vote, you can join it by buying stamps, making a piece of postcard art and mailing it to: 8760 Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90069.

Audience w/V. Vale hosted by Beatie Wolfe & Aaron Rose

An audience with Counterculture Godfather & Punk Publisher V. Vale [https://www.researchpubs.com/] hosted by Beatie Wolfe [https://beatiewolfe.com/] and Aaron Rose [https://www.aaronrose.co/] on Sunday April 16th at The Aster, Los Angeles. Listen to this OJ special x LA event celebrating the life and work of one of this world’s true originals: RE/Search founder V. Vale [https://www.researchpubs.com/] – described as the first (and last!) punk publisher! After launching San Francisco’s first punk zine Search & Destroy in 1977 with $100 each from Allen Ginsberg and Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Vale founded RE/Search in 1980 for his other cultural-anthropological explorations including Industrial music, the writings of J.G. Ballard and William S. Burroughs, feminism, “Incredibly Strange” filmmaking and so much more. A cornerstone of the counterculture movement, Vale’s influence remains both all-pervasive and yet hidden in plain sight. This event includes a conversation between Vale, Aaron Rose and Beatie Wolfe; a live DJ set from Money Mark [https://www.instagram.com/moneymark/?hl=en] on tape cassettes; a reading of Vale’s cat haikus and “Goals for Life” and a live performance from Vale and Marian.
