New tabloid in my shop now along with a big two sided newsprint poster.
“Caustic Signoff” is the third tabloid songbook from Robert Beatty’s AHEM Editions. Geometric landscapes interrupted by slapstick new age placards advertising the B-movie miracle cure you’ve been waiting for to help end your broadcast day.
“Caustic Signoff” by Robert Beatty, Published by AHEM Editions, Spring 2026. 12 pages, full color newsprint tabloid (approx. 11.5”x14.5”)

Second issue of my new periodical is available now!
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Buffalo Bumpers Data-Book”, despite the title not having anything in common with the premier issue, is indeed the second periodical in a series of haywire declarations from Robert Beatty, self published by his own AHEM Editions. But what is a Buffalo Bumper? And why does it need a manual of specifications? No guarantees are made that the answer will be found within.

Aaron Dilloway and Ed Sunspot on the same bill, two absolute masters of the American electrical unconscious. Top-shelf freak shit from people who have spent decades figuring out which wires to cross to make the furniture start remembering things.
(Amazing flyer by ROBERT BEATTY @robertbeattyart )
The last time I saw Aaron Dilloway perform, he came out dressed like somebody’s Pentecostal uncle headed to a funeral supper: collared shirt, chair, table, reel-to-reel tape machine. Nothing to worry about.
A black cord hung from the corner of his mouth like a second tongue, or some electrical tapeworm he’d pulled halfway out of himself and then changed his mind about. Somebody had wired him up from the inside and left a little extra hanging out. It was the sort of cord you’d find knotted behind a woodgrain Magnavox with the rabbit ears bent sideways, down there among the orange extension cords, dead Christmas lights, coaxial cable, bread ties, and one mysterious AC adapter belonging to an appliance nobody in the family has owned since 1987. The chair itself appeared to be mic’d, so every creak and bodily twitch entered the machinery. Man, chair, wire, tape: one miserable circuit.
Pretty soon Dilloway began to blur, losing his edges, like one of those nineteenth-century spirit photographs where the dead aunt appears behind the curtains, except the spirit world had apparently spent the intervening century wandering through Kmart.
Demonic to the thirty-third degree.
Like somebody had run the Devil through a tape loop, dubbed him onto a Maxell cassette, left him on the dashboard of a Buick LeSabre through three Kentucky summers, discovered him twenty years later in a shoebox marked MISC., and played him backward through the PA at the fellowship hall.
Rural electricity discovering it had been possessed. A séance in a double wide. An exorcism conducted by Radio Shack.
