Hallowzine #2 is out now! Where did trick-or-treating and the jack-o'-lantern come from? After reading this zine, you will know. Written by my wife with design and public-domain art direction from me.

Also now in print (!): https://microcosmpublishing.com/catalog/artist/r-j-gillis

Scenes from B0ardside 6 on Sunday in the Sunset. Demo & performance from visiting artist Sean Russell Hallowell ~ performances from musical guests Entropics and Fuckwolfband ~ and great teamwork from the B0ardside b0ard.

The B0ardside will be at Stokefest, celebrating Great Highway Park, on Nov. 11 with a new zine (No. 7!) Music by Sideb0ard, readings by Matthew Monte + others, and a make-your-own Zine Zone. Be there!

an awesome blurb about my new zine. thanks antiquated future!!

#Zines #AntiquatedFuture #BostonMA #MutualAid #RadicalHistory

a blurb about my new zine, reading "Tim Devin is arguably the most dedicated researcher working in zines right now, and his series of radical history zines are testaments to what's possible in the zine form."

Someone recently asked me what my first memory of listening to WFMU was. I had to think about it for a minute, and I finally settled on either Wildgirl (while driving to Maxwell's for Saturday night gigs in the late 80s/early 90s), or one of the longtime Sunday afternoon hosts (Gaylord Fields or Bill Kelly) while loitering at the old See Hear shop on E. 7th St. (They were ALWAYS playing 'FMU there.)

Speaking of See Hear, here's a short video tour of the place. I can practically smell the persistent odor of incense, weed, and damp basement all the way across the time vortex. https://youtu.be/4OeAVE2KQJM?si=rTmg3DnMnjUbIHXV

Hello!

I am an artist and professor of Creative Technologies at Virginia Tech. In my work, I focus on the ways technologies of visualization and control intersect with and threaten #trans lives.

I work in #creativecode, #sculpture, #writing, #artistbooks, and more. Lately I have been doing a lot of #webdev for my projects and in my teaching.

Earlier this year, I combined my #HTML / #CSS / #JavaScript teaching resources into a single (free and open) site that I am really proud of:

https://byhand.website

I am also interested in #horror, #scifi, #solarpunk, #permacomputing, #historyoftechnology, #transstudies, #maps, #archives, #zines, and #ttrpgs.

friends, i have a few more copies left of my zine series about ~The Great Garbage Continuum!~

"Avoid angry garbage spirits and junk piles run amok in this visual tour of the strange lands beyond the (trash) bin. In a world overflowing with people-made stuff, understanding these flows of unwanted materials will be crucial to the thousand-year cleanup we're going to need next."

(plus, almost all the art was generated with #AI / #ML (deepdreamgenerator.com), so you can compare how well i did compared to the jokers over at californiaforever.com)

the set of 6 color zines is $15: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1490501146/zine-pack-great-garbage-continuum-pack

This was a crowdfunded project that I put together back in 2020. Since then, I have run out of non-defect physical copies of it, so I thought it would be a good idea to make it more accessible, as well as discount the remaining physical and digital copies of it for everyone else who didn't have the chance to get a copy yet.

So go and grab yours!

OKAY. My three "side hustle" goal projects for the week:

📓 Assemble and print zines (since Paper Plains Zine Con in Lawrence, KS is this next weekend!)

📹 Create a few "C++ [topic] in 60 seconds" shorts, queue up on YouTube.

🖌️ Create some art for an itchio asset pack. (Perhaps bases and parts to build Visual Novel characters? RPG characters? Something...)

💡 And since I'm gonna do class prep anyway, that all goes on my website, too.

The computer nerds said I'd regret having so many physical #books ...they were wrong.

The book nerds said I'd regret getting so many #ebooks, files and digital #manga ... also wrong.

Modernists said I'd regret spending so much time on the #classics...nope.

Classicists said I was wasting my time on #zines and counterculture and the bubbly edge of new shit...not at all.

It's getting to the point where when I need good brainfuel, I look for what I'm being told is useless. :D

living on a #farm, i am often confronted with that most inevitable of problems: TRASH.

we don't get garbage service, so all the trash we produce, we have to take to the dump ourselves. and since i'm pretty lazy, i try to repurpose & re-use as much stuff as i can (to minimize trips to the dump).

observing this "lifecycle of materials" led me to the concept of the GREAT GARBAGE CONTINUUM: a great swirling vortex of materials in various stages of use and function.

we are all in the continuum. items flow into our homes, are put to use for some time, and then flow out of our homes via weekly trash pickup, toilet flushes, and donations to the goodwill.

given how much trash humanity makes, it would serve us all well to understand how to navigate this continuum.

so i made a series of 6 zines dealing w/many aspect of the GGC: from an introduction to garbage flows, to descriptions of the creatures that reside there, and ways to deal with Too Much Stuff.

this 6 pack of #zines is available for $15 here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1490501146/zine-pack-great-garbage-continuum-pack

Stein’s Moomin OC, Nukkivi sitting in a flower field with sleepy eyes. My Moomin OC, Mimimi stands on a rock to place a flower crown on their head. Nukkivi is a bit different from Moomins, they are much fluffier, have round ears, and a round fluffy tail. Because they sleep so often, moss started growing on their back. Mimimi is a mumrik with black hair, eyes, a pink flower crown, a white shirt and a green pinafore. they both have rosy cheeks and twinkles next to their head. the background is filled with white and pink flowers.
Drawing of my character Niwa, she is wearing pink and purple sino-tibetan influenced robes and a long dark cape. She is lying on the ground bound by tree roots which have also pierced her through the chest and stomach. A clawed armoured foot step on her thigh with the figure's huge shadow settling  across the page. On the right,  "moonflower", is hand lettered vertically in yellow. The background is abstract grass texture.
Black and white comic page. Starts with one horizontal panel at the top with a young black girl poking through forest waste. Below are 3 vertical panels in a row. 1) is a little hamster with butterfly wings in front of a crushed can; 2) a close up on leaves, but 2 of them resemble cicada wings; 3) the girl holds the hamster in her hand. the speech bubble says "You must be a pixie since you have wings and you're so small!"
Below is the little girl sitting on a rock eating a sandwich with the hamster flying near her eating her granola bar. The narrative text says, "I think I am getting closer"
Black woman memaid leaning against a fallen tree in a swampy area. There is a green luminescent mist and her tail is iridescent with purples yellows and greens. The mermaid has purple hair in butterfly locs and purple eyes with slits in them. Her hands are clawed.

Zine Library Day in Denton: How locals embrace this DIY form of art and creativity https://dentonrc.com/entertainment/zine-library-day-in-denton-how-locals-embrace-this-diy-form-of-art-and-creativity/article_6cab0812-3e04-596e-987e-bf2dd5532f9e.html

“[Zines are] a vehicle for knowledge, for skill-sharing [and for] collaborating,” Smith-Vaughn said. “We could all make one page of a zine and put it together and make this time capsule of a moment.”

It can't possibly be a coincidence that the Barbie movie premiers on International Zine Library Day.

Do yall have advice/resources for improving visual accessibility when designing mini #zines? (1 page 8.5x11" paper folded down into a 8 page booklet)

I'll use general print accessibility guidelines, but am wondering about approaches specific to very small (2.75x4") print page size. Thanks!

I'm including #zines, small press stuff, and #ArtBooks in this 2023 "What I read" thread.

"Civic '99" by #BenjaminPaulKraco is a riso zine about a kick-ass 1999 Honda Civic, "Speed! Action! Violence!" Hell yeah! Before I bought it, we talked about my 1995 Toyota Tercel. Had to get this.

You can find more of Benjamin's work on Instagram @ WorldsBiggestMinecraftSbarro.

#Risograph @bookstodon

Cover has a line drawing in fluorescent pink ink of the car. Hand written in the corner in the same ink: "Trash Can Psychedelia #1". The title of the zine is also handwritten vertically down the page in black: Civic '99. Vroom vroom motherfuckers.
Inside page hand written in black ink: 

"Can you feel it? Can you fucking feel it? The raw power surging through the wheel? You fucking pervert, YOUR desire for sadistic, depraved ultraviolence got US here. I wanted no part in it, but since I'm here, I have to call it as I see it. Are you proud? This car has it all. Lick the fucking road dust left by all this new construction. A WeWork space? Do you NEED it? Are you proud? I'm packing up and heading back to Rockford. At least there YOU have to beg me for mercy. Civic '99.

Benjamin Paul Kraco
Thanks Yewon Kwon Chungo.
Two page spread of a line drawing of the 1999 Honda Civic. Also in black ink is this hand lettering above and below it: 

"It was a Honda Civic. But not just any Honda Civic. It was THE FASTEST I ever got to test drive."

A circular aura emanates from the Honda Civic, rendered in bright fluorescent pink ink. Get in, loser.

Fresh #introduction post as I've been on Mastodon since the first Musty Meltdown but only just migrated to cupoftea.social.

I'm Suzy, I work in a chaotic little lab in the UK apart from when I'm allowed out into a field for some enrichment. In my spare time I'm a collector of hobbies including #DnD, #MiniaturePainting, #Crossstitch, #Crochet, #3dPrinting and historically, #zines. I've always loved #writing but don't do enough. Also I have a housemate called Teddy/Tedward/Tedopher/Tedocrates. He's small, orange and looks remarkably like a cat.

Hi! I'm a queer zinester based in the PH. I read a lot & write a lot & obsess over a lot of things.

I like cats & hate fascists.
