Dark Versailles
Xerox liturgy for portraits, receipts, objects, and the theater of staying in frame.
A monochrome issue engineered as one reading sequence: photocopy abrasion, manifesto fragments, confrontational plates, and courtly severity flattened for web and EPUB from the same spine.
Issue thesis
Built for exported Favorites from macOS Photos, then pared down to self-images and objects before any public treatment.

Black Velvet Index
The issue opens as an oath: no witness stands outside the frame, and every page keeps the residue of handling visible.
Seal Of The Stairwell
A narrow ascent of railing, posture, and chrome. Each image lands like an insignia instead of a memory.
Inventory Of Posture
Not the body as revelation. The body as ordinance, inventory, refusal, and proof of repetition.

Plate
Ash Ritual
Objects take the charge here. Vessel, fabric, ash, and glare move like ceremonial evidence.
Release
Closing Ledger
The credits behave like a receipt: terse, bruised, final, and unembarrassed about process.
