The city pulses with the rhythms of sleep across all edges of the multiverse. Buildings growing, sprouting from empty lots as people drift off to sleep. While entire neighborhoods, districts, and suburbs collapse, burn, and erode as others awake to go about their day. - project NERVES in their blurb for Endsville


When you sleep, you dream of Endsville.


Three hundred years ago, the infamous Wall Parker catalogued the streets of Endsville in his collection of zines titled Static Black Night Sky.  They were collected post-humously and republished in the Endsville book by project NERVES.  We are inspired by that work.  For the past fifteen years I've been collecting various works inspired by Wall Parker, listed in the projects below, submitted by various artists from across the many worlds who read Parker's work and found something special in it.  I intend this to be, not a companion to Static Black Night Sky, but perhaps a tribute- an elegy.

Write to me your dreams, tell me about your worlds, the things you've found on the dim backstreets and alleys of the city between realities.
