About
Fungus Zone is a Neocities blog created and run by Mike Horowitz, an artist and animator living in Tiohtià:ke - Mooniyang (Montréal). He hopes to cultivate this site as a place to practice longer form writing, think more critically about the works he engages with, and to have a little fun. Each new post will also be accompanied by a commissioned work of art in the hopes that this (arguably) selfish endeavour can simultaneously provide material benefit to others, too.
For more on his approach to this space and its vision, please read The Fungus Manifesto.
