Teleportation

When I was a kid, I used to imagine a car ride as teleportation. The windows were screens that showed the destination buffering.
My mom would measure the distances in Sesame Street segments. Walmart was an Elmo’s World away. The dinner we were going to was half of one whole Sesame Street episode.
This zine is pseudological proof of how this kind of transportation worked. It was a lot of fun researching it because of how I could fold elements of light, manuscripts by Muslim astronomers, Sesame Street, grief, and levity.
