What to expect from LOOSEY?
Subscribe to LOOSEY to get a semi-occasional hit of cultural hoopla in your inbox. This could range from musings on technology, art, pop culture, film and music or defending my position on Cool Ranch Doritos being the superior chip flavour.
And who is the man behind LOOSEY?
That’s me. Brendon. I’m a Canadian writer based in New York. You can find my writing all over the place but here are a few of my greatest hits:
on the strength and strain of representation in reality television in Electric Lit
on memory technology and the erosion of nostalgia in The Globe and Mail
on group chats in 3:AM Magazine
on the malleability of identity and race across geographies in Lolwe
on our migration to the metaverse in shado
on my new approach to resolutions in The Globe and Mail
and a few art/music/theatre reviews in The Drift!
If you like some of these, please subscribe to LOOSEY!
