Utterly devastated to hear Ashley Crawford—cultural critic, arts writer, and founding editor of the hugely influential 1990’s cyberculture magazine 21.C and boundary-shattering World Art—died. He published my edgiest essays of the '90's and was a dear friend. Can't believe he's gone. #ashleycrawford
