Ep. 7 | Trust The Process Press Blends Prose, Play and Purpose
This is a special episode of Sound Travels, where you’ll hear more from me - Ola - alongside my partner, Rhandy Adolphe, aka SambaRanthony, to label yourself a ‘community cultivator’ when you spend all your time championing others, so let’s consider Trust The Process Press (TTPP) the CC in this case, shall well?
In this episode, we discuss our new venture Trust The Process Press, and MiBoSo, a zine about travel and its nourishing impact on Mind, Body and Soul.
Produced by Trust The Process Press, the first installment documents an intentional venture between Mexico City and Miami, Florida. Partners, Rhandy Adolphe and Ola Mazzuca, share their experiences through vibrant film and digital photography, accompanied by haikus composed at every step of the journey. The reflective prose unveils perspectives that emerge when you’re fully present, in the company of love, while immersed in adventure-induced revelations.
We delve into the impetus of TTPP, storytelling about our first zine, MiBoSo, future intentions and more - all soundtracked to songs by Iggy Pop, Hitomi Tohyama, Uh Huh, Son Rompe Pera and Sault. It also allowed us to reflect on current global happenings and how these projects can embody evergreen, evolving meaning.
Connect with us at @trusttheprocesspress, and find our zine here.
Find us at the Recess Night Market on Thursday, February 29 - 6 pm to 10 pm at The Combine.
