About

THE THING Quarterly

THE THING Quarterly is a periodical in the form of an object. Each year, four artists, writers, musicians or filmmakers are invited by the editors (Jonn Herschend and Will Rogan) to create an everyday object that somehow incorporates text. This object will be reproduced and hand wrapped at a wrapping party and then mailed to the homes of the subscribers with the help of the United States Postal Service.

THE THING’s current year of subscriptions(issues 8-11) will begin with an issue by artist and writer Trevor Paglen; and will continue with visual artist Ryan Gander; and writer/radio personality Starlee Kine; and will end with Chris Johanson.

THE THING Projects

From time to time, THE THING will release special side THING projects. These will not be a part of the quarterly. These projects will range in terms of price and production: sometimes free, sometimes not, sometimes limited and signed and sometimes neither.
