Pictured here find former THE2NDHAND design man and current janitorial services director Rob Funderburk’s contribution of paint to Specimen Products’ new line of Little Horn speakers, for which they held a show featuring Funderburk’s additions at their 1240 N. Homan space in Chicago Dec. 3. Rob’s got a cool gallery of photos from his work on the horns, which can be used as a nice little setup for yr iPod or other low-wattage output audio device, the folks at Specimen say. To check out the pics, click on the image here.

Meanwhile, the astute folks at Annalemma are collecting work and donations for a soon-to-be-published collection of holidays-gone-awry-type stories to benefit THE2NDHAND past contributor Anne Elizabeth Moore‘s work teaching zine production to Cambodians. For more about the “Holiday in Cambodia” venture, and how to submit work, follow this link.  

AND HERE AT THE2NDHAND co-HQ in Nashville, we’re plotting a local reading series, with hopes of bringing it to reality in March, at the earliest; scribes on the ground in middle Tennessee and beyond, reach out. Hit me with an email, a story or just an idea — todd@the2ndhand.com.
