Are You There?
Are You There? is a collection of documents exploring existentialism.
Letter from the Editor:
This publication is a personal attempt to make sense of existing—through interpersonal connection, through physical phenomena and evidence of life, through the lens of other people who ask themselves the same questions. This publication has no beginning and no end.

Documents
Love Letters
Much of who we are is defined by who we are to other people: our interactions and relationships with other people. Documents is a collection of loose leaf “love letters” either written to me or by me throughout my life. Each figure is accompanied by comments on the reverse side of the page.

FAQ
q&a
Existential thinking can often lead one in circles. FAQ documents my descent into the rabbit hole of Google’s “People also ask” feature. Starting with the simple question, “What is an existential nihilist?”, I eventually end up learning about agnosticism, philosophy, boolean logic and lemons.
