Comment: This sounds like it could be potentially notable, but of the many sources cited only the New Yorker piece meets the WP:GNG criteria, and it alone isn't enough. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:21, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
Inpatient Press is an independent book and multimediapublisher based in Brooklyn, New York. Founded in 2013 in New York, it publishes a wide range of material including experimental literature, poetry, science fiction, erotica, art books, translations, republications of out-of-print titles, and facsimiles of found objects including underground magazines and newspapers.[1] Their motto is, "We Publish What Others Do Not."[2]
History
Inpatient Press was founded by Mitch Anzuoni and Rory Hamovit in 2013, beginning as a mail art project involving limited run publications and special printed editions.[3] Hamovit departed in 2017 to attend Yale University and remains an editor emeritus. Under Anzuoni's direction, the press turned its focus to experimental poetry and fiction, including translations, as well as collaborations with galleries and museums in New York City such as Leslie-Lohman, Canada, Artists Space, Lubov, and King's Leap.[1][3]
Inpatient's focus on obscure and unconventional books has led to coverage in the New York Review of Books,[4]Artforum,[5]the New Yorker,[1]the Brooklyn Rail,[6]the Japan Times,[7] and GQ.[8]
An Inpatient Press News Box on the Streets of New York
Inpatient Press has garnered media attention for their modes of distribution, including the sale of books, posters, and other merchandise through newspaper boxes positioned around New York City.[3] Their primary newspaper box, installed in 2019, is located in front of the Whitney Museum (the museum accidentally destroyed the original box, resulting in a letter of apology to Anzuoni[1]), while another has since been installed in the Clinton Hill neighborhood of Brooklyn. Anzuoni and interns for the press would also sell books out of special pockets sewn inside a trenchcoat.[1]
In addition to these alternative methods of distribution, Inpatient's publications are also conventionally available in bookstores around New York City such as Printed Matter as well as abroad.[1][3]
Video Games
In 2021, Inpatient launched a division called "Inpatient Interactive"[9] specializing in the production and release of video games. To date they have released two games: a publishing simulator entitled Small Press Tycoon and "a psychotronic multimedia office adventure" entitled Mezzanine, which was funded in part by Rhizome and had its premiere at the New Museum.[10][11] Writing from Small Press Tycoon was excerpted in Harper's Magazine, the second such simulation game to be featured in the magazine after Dwarf Fortress.[12][13]
