SCREENSHOTS is a monthly series of posts via which HILOBROW’s Josh Glenn reviews his most recent screenshots — before deleting them from the over-full Dropbox folder to which they’d been uploaded. Also see the PHOTO DUMP series.

Continuing to interview semioticians from around the world for the SEMIOVOX series MAKING SENSE.

Extracting a poem — for the RADIUM AGE POETRY series, here at HILOBROW — from an age-browned edition of Olaf Stapledon’s 1932 proto-sf novel Last Men in London (via the Internet Archive). I’ve already scheduled a poem for every five days from now through the end of 2026, yet I keep finding more….

*

Editing PHOTO OP, a series — by the global community of commercial semioticians — that will begin to appear at SEMIOVOX in the spring.

Working on a series of posts about the semiotic codes of Casablanca, for our sister website SEMIOVOX.

Detail from a print by Lawry Hutcheson, for the HILOBROW series LINOCUT 2024.

Researching proto-sf plays, poems, stories, and novels by African American authors, c. 1900–1935. For an upcoming MIT Press project, hopefully.
