"Defying taxonomy, TMMMMMDMD is an intoxicating assembly of hallucinatory enigma, pop ephemera, and surrealist word games. Pleasure abounds as manipulated song lyrics misdirect into ultraviolent rainbows. Phonetic gamesmanship layers over inverted corporate branding, becoming tentacled. Magic eye puzzles double as delivery agents for aspirational nausea. With each destabilizing gesture, Jones skewers our vertical hierarchies of added value and pushes us towards new lateral networks of inherent value. From comedy to tragedy and then back again, TMMMMMDMD delivers solidarity with the most human of denominators between us all.
Backlit by the afterburn of our monetized nihilism, singularity transforms into plurality, personality performance unlocks into absurd pathos, and exterior surfaces sunder into interior depths. Fractured by this 196-page kaleidoscope of hyper-abjection, TMMMMMDMD ultimately reassembles our lost appendages and summons the rider of a horse of a different color."
