Kritiqal Care

Episode 18: Nathalie Lawhead


Listen Later

Something new on this week’s Kritiqal Care, I’m joined by experimental software developer Nathalie Lawhead (they/them) to talk about the weird side of the internet. Nathalie specializes in small art tools with 90s sensibilities and lots and lots of potatoes, and recently released Electric Zine Maker for anyone looking to become an amateur publicist. It was a delight to have them on to reflect on where internet art has been and where it’s going, and I highly recommend checking out their essay on small tools which inspired this episode.

You can follow Nathalie on Twitter @alienmelon and find more of her projects at alienmelon.com.
