Promotional graphic for the book "Screen Captures: Film in the Age of Emergency" by Stephen Lee Naish. On the left is the book cover featuring abstract, glitchy vertical streaks in blue, white, and orange tones with the title arranged vertically. The background is a distorted, static-like image in similar colors. On the right, a quote reads, “a kaleidoscopic blending of cinema, politics, and pop-culture” attributed to Iain Reid. Lever Press logo appears in the bottom right corner.
🎞️ Out this month: "Screen Captures"
Stephen Lee Naish interrogates how contemporary cinema mediates crises from climate to platform capitalism, asking what our viewing habits reveal about power, attention, and cultural life today.

Promotional graphic for “Trigger Warnings”. The book cover can be found to the left of the graphic, which has white text and contains a surrealist and absurdist art piece depicting a scene of chaos with three people with abstract shaped bodies. To the right of the cover image, a review quote by Shereen Inayatulla in white text above a pink background reads, “This collection enlivens critical pedagogies by treating the subject of trigger warnings with the care and nuanced consideration urgently needed.” The Lever Press logo in white appears next to the quote. Above the quotation there is an enlarged section of the artwork found on the cover.
“Trigger Warnings” from Lever Press is an interdisciplinary collection which aims to deepen our understanding of trigger warnings in a social justice context. Read more about the book here: bit.ly/4qXJtNf @leverpress.bsky.social

The essays cover a lot of ground but basically take in the period 2009-2021. Crash to Covid + emergencies between.

Thanks for your patience, our website is back up and running! Start browsing here: www.leverpress.org
Check out this transatlantic Q&A with DRIFT NET author @chriscampanioni.bsky.social and poet @cmakris.bsky.social! The poets reflect on each other's work, their approaches to poetry in digital dynamics, and an avant-garde sensibility shaped by migration:
"The arc of the study and its use of autoethnographic narrative, alongside close readings and interviews with asylum applicants and shelter directors, speaks to the book’s mobilization of critical-creative scholarship." Read more about DRIFT NET by @chriscampanioni.bsky.social:
After almost a decade of correspondence, exchange of work and editorial activities, Chris Campanioni (New Jersey) and Christodoulos Makris (Dublin) met in person in New York City in January 2025. Here, they reflect on each other's work.
