“There is no state of mind, however simple, which does not change every moment, since there is no consciousness without memory, and no continuation of a state without the addition, to the present feeling, of the memory of past moments. It is this which constitutes duration.”

Parley and Public Records have long shared similar values. .tv is a global environmental organization where creators, thinkers, and leaders come together to raise awareness for our oceans. is a multifunctional cultural and music space that places the safety of people, animals, and the environment at the center of its mission.

This synergy paved the way for a natural partnership. Over the past couple of years, our teams have been linking up for a series of cleanups in New York — last week’s was the seventh we’ve done together (thanks to our volunteers!) — and much like every .tv project, the collaboration isn’t just about cleaning up.

Over on the Parley Journal, the Public Records co-founders dig a little deeper into this mission and discuss reshaping what rebellion really looks like. Read the full interview from the Parley team at the bio link.

When we started to conceptualize THE NURSERY, we first thought about our existing needs on campus—one being the need to protect our plant life during the winter. As the idea developed, we challenged ourselves to find out what it would look like if this plant nursery could also engage with public activities like dinners and music events. The result is a space that fully embodies our ethos. It contextualizes music experiences, champions sustainably minded design, and connects people to nature—and at its core, serves as a vessel for incredible parties.

Pomona Gimlet, its name derived from the Greek goddess of orchard fruit, is refined by a nectarine-infused vodka, a mint + lime cordial crafted in-house, and a touch of Ponche Pajorote, a Mexican bitter orange, cardamom, and clove liquor.
