Cobra Lily
Cobra Lily is a self-published art and literary magazine created by Ella Simone that explores contemporary life through art and writing. The Cobra Lily podcast extends that universe into cultural commentary, drawing on psychology, sociology, and philosophy to examine the glitchy, sprawling reality of a hyper-connected world. Every other week, friends Maria and Ella observe culture and human behavior as they unfold both on and off the screen.
