40 Days, 40 Moments! The Madlab Post Studio Turns 4 #NaBloPoMo
Monday, November 1, 2021 at 11:30PM Four years ago in 2017, after making films, writing about films and screening films in non-traditional spaces, I opened a studio to house The Madlab Post and my subsequent multimedia projects at Bok — one of Philly’s most historic Art Deco buildings.

If you’ve never heard of NaBloPoMo or NaNoWriMo, it’s basically two similar online writing events that happen around the same time but yield different results for it’s participants in terms of formality, all around vibes (read: fun factor) and pressure. It’s like the difference between the Sundance and Slamdance film festivals that happen every January in Utah.
Often cited as a monthly blogging challenge that was hosted by the BlogHer network for many years, NaBloPoMo was actually started by Eden Kennedy as a fun challenge to blog everyday in November. With no days off, NaBloPoMo also included prizes for people who complete it. The daily blogging challenge also served as an alternative to National Novel Writing Month aka NaNoWriMo, an annual event that happens in November to promote creative writing and motivate authors to complete a novel in 30 days.
Tune in for the next six weeks to read about some of our greatest and most memorable moments to mark this 4th anniversary of my studio’s grand opening.
