I’m Alexander Billet. I exist in Los Angeles. I also write, often obsessively, about music and arts, cities, and radical memory. I’ve done so for Jacobin, Salvage, Los Angeles Review of Books, In These Times, Real Life, Popula, Protean, Marx & Philosophy Review of Books, Historical Materialism blog, Radical Art Review, Chicago Review, Against the Current, and others.
My first book, Shake the City: Experiments In Space and Time, Music and Crisis, was published in late 2022 through 1968 Press. It has been translated into Portuguese and published by Sobinfluencia Edições with the title Abalar a Cidade – Música e Capitalismo, Espaço e Tempo. I am a member of the Locust Arts & Letters Collective and help edit its publication, Locust Review.

Doing so allows me to devote more time to this. It will also be appreciated on my part.
If you want me to write for you and have money to pay me, then let me know. If you want me to write for you and don’t have money to pay me, you should also let me know. You can email me at alexbillet@gmail.com. I’m also intermittently active on Instagram and BlueSky.
