GLOOM
(O)
Jake Reber
Gloom is a serialized collection of comics and zines. Each section will be released 35 days after the previous installment, stretching over the course of a year.
As the project begins to evolve and extend, the threads and fragments embedded across these materials will begin to pull us in deeper. Listen to the hum. Document the slow passage of time. Immerse yourself in the strange interfaces and recite the digital prayers that proliferate in this glitchy environment.
