It’s not easy to describe Mutable. We’ve been a label, a collective, a brand, and of course, we are none of these things because we are mutable. At it’s core, Mutable is the artists we love, and the world which they have created. It is paperbacks written by fresh new voices, transcendent home recordings, experimental theater in people’s homes, massive tomes of science fiction, pseudo-children’s albums on colored vinyl, performances in dark Vietnamese cafés. It’s a world that’s always shifting and expanding. Mutable.
Enjoymutable.com is your opportunity to engage with the Mutable world. Not only can you find news and information about your favorite Mutable artists, but it also sheds light on other work that inspires us, the inner thoughts that consume us, and puzzling cultural phenomena. Enjoymutable.com is also where you can support our family of artists by purchasing some of those products mentioned above. And finally, it is the place to enjoy a vast selection of online content created exclusively for enjoymutable.com. From short stories, to interviews, to radio plays, enjoymutable.com aims to provide you access to a seemingly endless library of original material. And, of course, we hope to continue to push the envelope of this medium to allow our artists to fully realize the potential of this digital canvas.
And what makes a Mutable artist? At first, it was just a tight knit group of creative friends (read about our history here) forming Mutable in an effort to find strength in numbers. As it grew, and more artists gravitated to us and found shade under our umbrella, a particular Mutable aesthetic began to reveal itself. Our work is unexpected, often absurd and irreverent, personal and uncompromising, informed equally by obscure texts and popular cinema, yet wholly original. And most importantly, this aesthetic is bound to change and mutate because the Mutable artist is restless, and we welcome this uncertainty.
Another way to look at it? As Mark Fisher writes in his unfinished ‘Acid communism’: “Instead of seeking to overcome capital, we should focus on what capital must always obstruct: the collective capacity to produce, care and enjoy.”
We are Mutable. Enjoy.
