The Time Travelers Union Welcomes You!
For our 2026 calendar, we’ve gone back in time to bring new resonance to old Abacus Corvus images. Repainted, reconfigured, and reimagined. We envision each image in this collection as a union member within a vast collective of time travelers—all working together in metaphysical solidarity toward an inhabitable future.
FLOCK PROTECTORS
We are very happy to take this moment in time to welcome our beloved Flock Protectors to the Time Travelers Union. These hard working members have one of the toughest jobs in this union. Flocks carry generations after generations of time within them. This means flocks contain continuity—but the experience of continuity is merely an emergent property of the scale of our existence—just like time
TIME KILLERS
Whoosh—hello! We’re just landing after a wild travel through time this month—has it only been a month? We’re not sure exactly what day it is, but we are right on time to welcome the inimitable Time Killers to our Time Travelers Union! This union was founded by Time Killers…
ETERNAL RETURNERS
The Time Traveler’s Union is delighted to welcome our esteemed Eternal Returners—you who recognize that change is the only constant, you who regularly revisit all the ages you have ever been, you who remember your life by seasons, you who honor your cyclical nature. Where would we be without your reminders that every straight line eventually becomes a circle?
DESERT CROSSERS
Here we are at the end of the month that brings us closer to the middle of the year and takes us into yet another beginning—clearly, it is time for another heartfelt welcome!

You who hold rivers and seas and lakes and springs inside of you—you who walk through landscapes of deprivation and continue to…
Dreamy Drifters
Good morning, good evening, what day is it, what time is it? It is time to welcome, on behalf of the Time Travelers Union, our Dreamy Drifters. We welcome you whose minds wander, whose attentions stray, all of you who know how to let go and be carried. We welcome those who space out during work meetings, doodle in the margins of their textbooks, and reclaim expansive time whenever it’s needed.
BELOVED STRANGERS
On behalf of the Time Travelers Union, we welcome all Beloved Strangers—you who move as strangers in a strange land, you who hold strangeness with yourself, you who feel like strangers where you grew up, you who tend your deep strangeness and let it flower like the ghost orchid or night-blooming cereus.
TIME TRAVELERS
On behalf of the Time Travelers Union, we welcome you to this emerging fellowship. You are now a member of a growing collective of souls committed to breaking linear time. For too many centuries time has been fractured and squeezed, flattened into homogenous chunks of moments all lined up like good little soldiers—all bound to march endlessly in one direction, and one direction only: forward.
