what are nest magazine lovers reading to fill the void?

Lolita Corpus to thread!

stop living on an island, please

there are ticks everywhere. crippling ticks.

hi! i saw an ok feature in poplifemagazine (.com to see cover) on someone's diy victorian fu-fu-ism. but it's more fluffy like Readymade, not as in-depth or historical as Nest. actually it seemed more like the book PAD (i like how angry people with 'good taste' get about that one)

i never heard of those magazines you mentioned, but man, if that webpage is anything to go by, Cabinet seems like a nitemare. Nest explored interesting things in an interesting way. and had to do with space/interior/architecture (which was my draw to it) whereas Cabinet explores topics all over the board the commonality seeming to be forced over-intellectualization of boring minutia.

'A Timeline of Timelines'? 'A multimedia evening exploring why we laugh'? is this a parody of boring, quirky, artsy intellectuals? it's like non-fiction mcsweeneys.

oh dear. and i keep trying to curb my ranting.

i just sold 12 issues of nest to a guy who tripped and fell on my basement steps and didnt mention it but i saw him bleeding one day and didnt mention it and he is really muscular and looks like a prison inmate on th loose in kinda a cute way and he always wants gardening books and avant garde cassettes..he didnt even know what nest was but he bought every single one of them

how much for?

100$...i sold the no nude issue for 70 on ebay and let th rest go chepp cuz i didnt want to send 10 dollar magazines to australia all day long..i still have two left..the joint issue that is tied in black ribbon and the one w th laser cross burnt thru th middle..cabinet is fine but they dont have baby joe holtzmans wallet to kick around th office

not too bad i suppose.

Esopus is pretty cool. yeah, cabinet is all over the place. and a poor substitute for nest to be sure. but the pictures are kinda nice.

maria and i made good money on ebaby selling lotsa domus magazines from the 60's. the italian design magazine. we sold them for 20 & 30 dollars a pop to italians. i found tons of them in a box for 50 cents a piece outside a bookstore in philly. they are amazing to look at. i still have a couple sealed copies of nest. i bought them cheap at magazine stores. i will wait 30 years to sell them. then i will take the proceeds and buy more magazines that haven't been invented yet.

i once found a box of Flair magazines as a library sale and knew right away I would be able to eat for a month or so on their proceeds.Sure enough I sold the whole run(13 issues) for 280 dollars..they were th precursor to nest in their completely lavish mod inserts and wacky deckled edges

Yeah, Flair was the bomb. You can buy the complete run as a coffee-table book.

There were copies of Gentry magazine as well that had inserts like a package of grain that horses loved to eat ,glued onto a page.

For some reason I imagine you two talking about this over bowls of cereal. I think it's because I just got up.

I was wandering around the giant special collections library at UT-Austin once and stumbled upon the editorial conference room from Flair. They'd bought it along with the founder's papers and lovingly reassembled it on an upper floor of their tomblike building, coffee cups and all. It was like the conference room of the Mary Celeste.

I imagined design devotees filing to genuflect in their Quant dresses.
