Alone Together Conversations Cards OUT NOW!
The conversation cards are part of an experiment in creating products and art rather than typical merch, with the aim that is a physical extension of the concepts in the music.
The Alone Together conversation cards are now available on Metalabel and Bandcamp!
The most common question I got after both the pilot and the main event was: when can I buy the cards? So with some help from BSI Merch, I’ve had 50 packs made in a first run.
The cards have this amazing way of getting to interesting stories about people’s lives that you would never know otherwise, all through a shared love of music. The usual flow is that the answer to a card is a song, which is followed by why, which then leads to so much context you wouldn’t have expected to hear, or would never have known how to ask.
The conversations at the events ranged from funny to serious. And the card questions themselves often became the subject of conversation, without anyone even needing to get to the point of actually using them.
The conversation cards are part of an experiment in creating products and art rather than typical merch, with the aim that the are physical extension of the concepts in the music that allow participation in those ideas.
There’s also special VIP supporters edition on Metalabel that includes a limited edition poster from the June 27th event, and a discounted years paid tier subscription to this Substack!
Enjoy! x
