The Interview Project 11-20


Collection number two of The Interview Project. I would say these are fun but fun wouldn't be the right word. It wouldn't be the wrong word, just not the right one. Banana bread would be the wrong word. 'These are banana bread' doesn't even make sense. Who would say such a ridiculous thing? Not this guy, no …

The Interview Project 20: Saylish Haas


I've been friends with Saylish for a long time and because of this she likes to pick on me. Most of the time I deserve it. This one time, I was visiting Saylish's place of work (She co-owns the wonderful Next Act Pub), and she was doing her normal rounds. She usually welcomes me with …

Craig Martell (Martellica) has entrenched himself into the arts scene in Edmonton. He 'does many things' at the Wunderbar and has made it a place to do many things at.

The Interview Project 9: Ryan Byrne


Who needs a bio when you have tweets like this: "I stabbed a box of cereal and said "Guess you could call me a cereal killer," no one laughed. Next time I should do it before I murder them." Ryan Byrne is a mysterious man. One part self deprecating masturbation enthusiast, and one part dedicated film maker, …
