The first meeting is underway.
CU/RRENTS
Coming January 2026
I’ve been studying the jellyfish, the way it moves through water that was never its to own. Each pulse both intention and surrender, neither one winning. There’s a difference between swimming and what the jellyfish does. Swimming is struggle, a battle against. The jellyfish doesn’t swim so much as pulse, contracting the ocean into itself, then releasing it back, changed.
That’s what I want to build here.
CU/RRENTS is not another interview series. It is the space where two people meet and create what neither could make alone, the third thing that exists only in the touching.
Where MARGINS practices witness, CU/RRENTS practices meeting. Not observation, but entry. Not commentary, but shared risk.
This is where reading turns into exchange. Where I stop watching from the margins and enter the same uncertainty I’m asking someone else to navigate. These conversations begin with attention, with work that left a mark, thinking that demanded more.
The invitation is this: not to perform expertise, but to think together. To follow an idea even when it complicates the original position. To risk saying something true instead of something safe.
It’s intentionality without attachment. Release and grasp equally impossible when you are made of the same thing you are moving through. Not a mixing, but a new creation entirely. Not you plus the world, but the thing that only exists in the meeting.
January 2026.
First conversation incoming.
The slash is the meeting point.
Everything happens there.
About CU/RRENTS
CU/RRENTS launches January 2026 as a conversation practice within UNSPUN. Where MARGINS practices witness, CU/RRENTS practices meeting, moving from observation into shared inquiry.
This practice is grounded in Currents Make a Third Thing, where intention and surrender are not opposites, and what forms between voices becomes something neither could make alone.
To engage or continue the conversation, write to taylorallynofficial@gmail.com or follow UNSPUN for new releases and ongoing dialogues.
If something in this exchange stayed with you, that staying is the point.
Every word here is researched, written, and sharpened by one person—me. If you value work that names what others won’t, consider becoming a paid subscriber. It keeps this space independent, and makes rooms like this possible.
Powerful framing with the jellyfish metaphor. The distinction between "swimming" and "pulsing" nails something about real dialogue that most interview formats completley miss. Love how the slash in CU/RRENTS isn't just stylistic—it's structural, marking the actual space where something new gets created. I've seen too many conversations that stay on their own side of the slash, just taking turns monologuing. Looking forward to seeing what kind of third thing emerges when both people actually risk entry.
Oh snap!!
