FIRST POLICY

HEY KATIE! 🇨🇦

GREETINGS FROM KATIENADA!

Happy Halloween! 🎃

Before I head to NYC for a week, I wanted to send some good wishes north and make you a little corner of the internet.

I hope you're doing wonderfully and that life at Micak has been treating you well. I'd love to hear what you've been up to!

As for that very serious Canada First policy I mentioned in September, I decided it deserved a little more ceremony.

Please find your extremely unofficial diplomatic correspondence below. 🇨🇦

FROM A DISTANT STAR PRIVATE TRANSMISSION / 001
CANADA FIRST.
FIRST LOOK KATIE ONLY

Canada has not been consulted. Katie gets the first look.

Dear Katie,

Following an exhaustive review by a committee of one, I'm pleased to report that the Canada First policy is officially in effect. Legally binding in absolutely no jurisdiction.

I've been getting From a Distant Star ready — a small artist-led publishing project of greeting cards made with my photography, experiments with generative imagery, questionable humor, and occasional tenderness.

I love the idea of these little objects leaving the screen, traveling through the mail, and finding their way into somebody else's life.

I wanted you to have the first look at what's taking shape. I'd love to hear which ones catch your eye and whether a small selection might feel at home at Micak. Maybe there's a fun way to introduce them in Canada together.

Whatever comes of it, I thought you'd enjoy this peculiar little world I've been building.

Sending good things north,
Jay 🍋
