Satellite Issue 3.



(Cover image: Will Rogan)

According to the Editors, Jason Mortara and Jon Rubin, each issue of Satellite orbits around the life of one person. This person is not examined biographically, but obliquely, through a series of open-ended responses to many of the themes that define their life.

Letter From the Editors:
“Our criteria in choosing the central figure for this, our third issue of Satellite, were as follows: must be living, female, willing to travel, and have an unusual diversity of interests and experiences. Alive, interesting, and willing, Cory Bernat was a good match. Cory happens to be someone we both knew from our days at the San Francisco Art Institute, where she worked as a librarian. We chose her both deliberately and arbitrarily...”

Themes for Issue 3:
Air Force, archives, CIA, conspiracies, espionage, food and conspiracy, food and knowledge, hair cuts, libraries, native foods, paranoia, school groups, tour guides and wigs.

Artists and authors: Laura Albert, Cory Bernat, Daniel Coffeen, Nadine Fecht, Helena Keefe, Julie Lequin, Reuben Lorch-Miller, Naomi Miller, Jason Mortara, Will Rogan, Jon Rubin, Alice Shaw, Zack Sternwalker, James Tantum and Robert Wechsler.
