Get familiar with Jesska Cvijanovic whose pins, photography (214), and merch are foundational to the Pretty Lights Family that she helped create. Jesska shares how her photography passion changed her experience and perspective of shows, the history of the Illuminator and Vibe Adjuster programs, and the significance of some of the early Pretty Lights Family gatherings at festivals. She tells an unforgettable birthday story where her longtime friend Michal Menert gave her the ultimate VIP treatment at Electric Forest 2013. Jesska unapologetically advocates for Michal Menert’s underrepresented place in the scene, and shares her take on the controversial history of Taking Up Your Precious Time. 

The PLF Series is a collection of casual conversations that Wes and Elizabeth have with members of the Pretty Lights Family in an effort to understand our collective experiences despite our different backgrounds. We hear how people got turned on, what Pretty Lights means to them, and how these experiences have shaped their lives on our version of this long strange trip.
