    Almost Real Things: Issue 10 Release

    That bright little perfectbound zine of all things artful and fun in this city celebrates the release of its tenth number, "Material," with a big party and show at Canopy. "Some things are best left online (memes, anonymous shitposting)," say the ART honchos, "and other things are best touched, heard, seen, smelled, and tasted in the material world. That's why we make a physical magazine in the digital age." Hell, yes – and that's why we invite you to come celebrate with 'em!
    Fri., July 20, 8pm. Donations accepted, RSVP required.

    Katie Williams: Tell the Machine Goodnight

    Set in a near-future San Francisco where virtual reality is commonplace, Williams' first novel for adults introduces us to a cast of men and women struggling to figure out the definition of happiness. The author presents Tell the Machine Goodnight and is interviewed by Austin Chronicle Editor Kimberley Jones here tonight. "With its clever, compelling vision of the future, deeply human characters, and delightfully unpredictable story," says the Kirkus review, "this novel is itself a recipe for contentment."
