Nov 30, 2024 - Le Chauffage 3 Launch Event

NOVEMBER 30 6-9PM VANCOUVER LAUNCH EVENT OF LE CHAUFFAGE 3 W/ READINGS (7PM) BY @classwar604 & @voice___memos DRINKS BY @ntashhha AND A SPECIAL PRINT EDITION BY CATHARINE MACTAVISH. 4277 FRASER ST, VANCOUVER. COME CELEBRATE WITH US! MAGAZINES & PRINT EDITION ALL $30. WE ACCEPT CARD ;-)

The third issue of Le Chauffage is an inquiry into the relationship between the practices of artists/ writers and their day jobs. This subject stems from a question fundamental to the existing mandate of Le Chauffage: ‘how do you keep warm?’ and subsequently, ‘how do you pay the bills?’ As these perennial concerns occupy our everyday lives, we ask artists/writers to consider the influence that their day jobs, side hustles, creative or noncreative forms of employment have on their respective practices. This issue tries to account for the significant ways in which complex economic realities come to shape the art we produce, look at, and discuss. How do we deal with limited time and resources? How do we reclaim and steal time back? How do our day jobs shape and influence what we make? How do we subvert the means of production of the workplace? Can the constraint of a day job also be a way to alleviate the pressure of professionalising?

Give everyone the power to share anything with anyone

The box is made out of passed down paint and an out of reach poster and many curtains and empty carboys and spontaneous names and last minute questions and minutes and counting and teasing out; inside, honesty and thank yous–thank you Jordan, thank you Dylan–and risks, sincerities and promises and ands and edits between nine.

Fraser. r Farse. Fearrs. Frr sea. Fr ears. Frs ear.

stop coughing and expel phlegm and used for wind-heat cough, excessive phlegm with counter flow of qi in the airway.

The keynote suggests trading engagement for measured insights.

DARK BROWN is tense, nervous, harassed, overworked; BROWN is anxious, nervous, strained; AMBER is nervous, mixed emotions, unsettled, cool; GREEN is average, reading, active; BLUE-GREEN is inner emotions charged, somewhat relaxed; BLUE is relaxed, at ease, calm, loveable; DARK BLUE is happy, passionate, loving, romance.

Rest. Observe. Savor.

The journey is all we have.

A corrupted sinus, a grieving nostril.

Holding hands, zapping brains, exchanging sweat. Bunch of fun.
