PODCAST: Oliver Leach (@BAKKOOONN)

Photographer Oliver Leach, notorious as BAKOON on Twitter, joins Humor and the Abject over Skype this week all the way from San Francisco. We talked about his love of horror, rent-controlled apartments, his weird photographic processes, teratoma twins, Texas beef, circumventing the gallery system and selling directly to his audience on Twitter, prank phone calls, a bunch of comic books and movies I’ve never heard of, bullying the bullies on the alt-right, and even more photography. Make sure to follow Oliver on Twitter, and check out his reasonably-priced artwork here. The outro song is “Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me” by Fantômas.
