Double Decker (ebook edition)

eBook Edition, Physical Edition here

THE GALLERY IS NOT A GALLERY. No white walls. No wine-stained napkins. Just the flicker of a dying bulb in a trap-house backroom, the chemical hum of cold crack seeping into digital bedrock. Welcome to HOUDINI—where art isn’t hung, it’s clawed into the screen like a boxcutter sigil. This is the DOUBLE DECKER: a dual-channel broadcast, two contamination vectors, two ghosts in the machine. OXY, the French labyrinth architect, builds hostile choose-your-own-adventure nightmares. Mindape, Ottawa’s surrealist saboteur, stitches dreams from static and infrastructural decay. Together, they dissect the cold crack aesthetic—a movement where noise is texture, collapse is composition, and every image is a fossilized dream pulled from the static. "Why is Cold Crack?" Because the 2020s are haunted. Because the ruins are virtual. Because the algorithm hasn’t scraped the marrow from the underground yet. Flip the coin.
