Have no idea who put this pristine copy of 11 late-career Frank O’Hara poems—copyrighted by the estate and compiled by Ted Berrigan in 1974—in a little free library box on Cooper Square. But, I think I’m going to hold onto this one…

I was so glad to write an exhibition text for Jon Setter and his fantastic new show of photographs, “Sydney Beaches: Saturated Edge,” which is up at 8 Wall Gallery in Sydney until November 1. You can read what I wrote here: 8wallgallery.org/exhibitions/...

I was so happy when the Poetry Foundation and @jeremylybarger.bsky.social asked me to write this essay about Dario Bellezza—among the greatest, horniest, most unrepentant poets in modern Italian history. www.poetryfoundation.org/articles/167...

We do indeed fight back. Stand up for students, for education, for freedom, not for this sham of upper administration at Columbia. The university may capitulate, but my colleagues will not

Was so thrilled when Gay45, the estimable and long-running pan-European queer publication, asked me to send them some poems, including the first poem I wrote in adulthood (back in 2021), among others. Read ‘em here: gay45.eu/daniel-felse...

My DJ duo 3 People plays Rash again tonight, and our set will be a psychedelic, transformative journey through techno, bits and pieces of leftfield jazz, and weirdo poetry samples. We hit at a debauched hour, 12:45—perfect for what we do. No cover, 941 Willoughby Bushwick💛

Unfathomably awful that California forces prisoners who are paid a teeny percentage of minimum wage to put their lives in grave danger

Meanwhile, on the other site, people are finally arriving at the correct take on Stoner by John Williams—which is that it's actually an underwhelming and boring novel!!

Wrote about two of my favorite albums of the year for Pitchfork's favorite albums of the year, records by Mabe Fratti (#20) and Nala Sinephro (#5). Come take the journey through this list, lots of great writing about records that'll last way beyond 2024 pitchfork.com/features/lis...
