315Throwing this out there: I've spent this whole week reading and watching and listening to anything related to Steve, and fortunately, thanks to his own generosity and the sheer amount of people he's had an impact on, there's a ton. Some ghouls have already published e-books in his name - without doubt AI-rewritings of Wikipedia articles and interviews - but it got me thinking:
Steve considered it his primary job to make a "historical record of our musical culture", but a large amount of his life's work, particularly the parts he handed out freely, exist only in forgetful brains and ephemeral digital spaces, so maybe it would be appropriate to turn them into a physical object, too: A few of his essays, fanzine articles, transcriptions of talks and podcast appearances, a glossary of his opinions on different musicians and bands, his fluffy coffee recipe, some of his technical drawings, some personal recollections from his friends, some correspondences... (I just saw James Murphy here talking about Steve's response to a letter he wrote to him as a kid, and teared up a little, because it encapsulates so much of what made him great.)
Anyway, just wanted to put this idea of a book out here, because I think it would be a fitting tribute that some people on this forum seem equipped for, and that maybe could generate some money for his wife (and/or Letters to Santa) in the future.

317FM vish's remembrance of steve is all i hoped it would be. i obviously don't have the connection that he (and some of you) had with the man, but his interviews always made me share in that world a little bit

320Speaking of tees. The good folks at the studio posted on socials that they’d sold out of everything but have set the merch shop for pre orders for a new run… time to get those pencils you always wanted.
I couldn’t help myself and ordered a tee.
