DISTORIES is a small open-source and open-access Instagram zine project, gathering testimonies from disabled contributors. This project began in the context of the summer of 2021, as mask mandates and general precautions around COVID-19 were being relaxed. Each chapter of the zine is introduced by a question, framing stories and snapshots of experience as well as demands, affirmations, and dreams shared by contributors. The project was stewarded by geunsaeng ahn from September 2021 to July 2022.

DISTORIES is a small open-source and open-access Instagram zine project, gathering testimonies from disabled contributors. The project was stewarded by geunsaeng ahn from September 2021 to July 2022. Sixteen anonymous and named individuals have contributed content to this excerpt. Identities listed in the section just preceding the chapter excerpts are from all sixteen authors' own descriptions of their identities from submissions, as of July 2022. For those authors who did not choose to remain anonymous, readers will find information such as names or monikers, social media handles, and payment platform handles/accounts under each contribution, in each section. Some handles may not currently work, though they were active at the time that contributors shared them with DISTORIES.
