Write It Down
Half of what happened only survived because somebody bothered to write it down.
This archive will never be finished. It got stitched together out of WeChat threads, dead Substacks, shoeboxes of prints, and whatever people could still remember from three continents away. Plenty is missing. Whole issues, photos nobody ever scanned, whole nights that a hundred people were at and not one of them wrote down.
If you were there for any of it, the Jianbing Takeover, some teleportation attempt at midnight, a wedding on the wrong side of March, something that never even got a name, then you've got a piece of this. It doesn't need to be polished or long. A paragraph, a rumour you can't quite confirm, one blurry photo with a date on the back. That all counts.
Nobody's editing for taste and nobody's keeping score. Cacophony never had members or dues or anyone in charge. Send whatever you've got and it goes in.

It's in the pile.
Thanks. Someone will actually read it. If we need to ask you something we'll use the email you left. And if more comes back to you later, you know where to find us.
