Hardcore Architecture: Justin Blinder

by Justin Blinder Author, Michelle Millar Fisher Author and Public Collectors Author

This series explores the relationship between living space architecture and the history of underground American hardcore bands in the 1980s. This interview zine supplements the website: hardcorearchitecture.tumblr.com. It’s part of a series of printed publications addressing the project’s themes through writings, interviews, photos, and ephemera. Marc Fischer and Public Collectors are the project’s creators.

This booklet, the fourth in the series, features a lengthy conversation with artist, designer, and programmer Justin Blinder conducted by Michelle Millar Fisher. The conversation focuses on Blinder’s project “Vacated,” which interrogates the hyper gentrification of New York City.
