xMAdMx MANIFESTO

I am a pro human pro analog being

I wrote a memoir about coming into my womanhood in the last analog decade

I have 15,000 photographic images from that time

I am active online

I have come to Substack for a more substantial exchange, I love photos, hence my ease with Instagram lately, but I sure like to talk, write and connect with you.

This space is where the stories expand…I’ll be unboxing memories, photographs, journals, playlists, pilgrimages, conversations, and stories that didn’t fit inside my memoir or photography book.

My ‘90s Rock Memoir, Even the Good Girls Will Cry, tells the story of my journey through the ‘90s. Come September My ‘90s ROCK PHOTOGRAPHS book makes its way into the world. For the enhanced experience, be sure to learn more about my first major museum exhibition at The Art Gallery of Ontario, up from September 2026-June 2027. *** PLUS BONUS TRACK *** THE BASS WOMB ROOM, my soundtrack to the exhibit, available for listening HERE

This Substack picks up where these offerings leave off. I will share additional archives and stories untold, but also reflections from the HERE and the NOW, offering in-real-time reflections post-release of these works into the world. 2026 has been quite a deep dive and purge for me, and this is the place to capture the dynamic exchange occurring with you, the receiver.

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be revisiting the photographs and memories from my memoir, sharing the stories that live behind the black and white photos from my archive that I included … enhanced reflections on what the images express, beyond the stories told in the book.

Then, come September and the release of My ‘90s Rock Photographs, I’ll begin opening another chapter of the archive, revealing the untold stories behind those photographs, the behind the scenes installation of my museum exhibit and moments on the road with my book tour...

I’d love for you to join me on this journey…Consider becoming a Paid Subscriber to unlock the full xMAdMx experience: subscriber only stories, archival photographs, essays, playlists, voice notes, and intimate glimpses into my creative world.

For those who want to venture even further into my realm, xMAdMx Magic Membership is an invitation into the first chapter of this new journey. Founding Members receive additional exclusive archive access, special surprises throughout the year, and the below limited edition archival print created exclusively for this inaugural community: Self-Portrait at The Chelsea Hotel, 2001, where I was living the dream when our world changed forever.

How about we keep mystery alive together?

Meet Me Here ….
