HARD WORKERS CLUB
Yesterday we managed to rifle through a load of Zineswap post we have received of late and as usual we have received an exciting selection of zines from all over the globe. We will hopefully get swaps sent out by the end of the month. But one new arrival that grabbed my attention I wanted to mention was whipped up by the HARD WORKERS CLUB and showcases a selection of some lovely photography....

GAINESVILLE ZINE LIBRARY!
So its been a while since we posted anything to this section of the world wide web of wonder! Sorry for this, both me and Rob have been busy working on a mass of interesting new projects.
Anyway I was recently on a nice long break in America and found myself at a music festival in Gainesville, Florida of all places. An amazing, alcohol fueled and fast food driven time was had. But a highlight...

24-hour zine challenge!
It’s 30th July which means that International Zine Month 2011 is almost over.
A perfect thing to do for zinesters to do in International Zine Month, of course, is to send Zineswap copies of any issues they don’t have already…

Slipped deadlines and Attack!!!! 15
So we are here in the fourth week of my “Friendly Fridays” postings for Zineswap… and this is only my second post so far… and neither this nor the other was done on a Friday. With apologies to the good folk of Zineswap, and the countless millions out there no doubt hanging on my every word (ahem) - I don’t feel entirely bad about that, simply because it has a certain aptness to...

Hello swappers
I am Wes White. The very same Wes White heralded in the last post.
My website at cyberwes.com* is usually experienced by its browsers as a baffling maze of material, with pages referencing each other and sundry, and links unexpectedly taking you to the ‘shop’ page at every opportunity - which is how it should be.
Right now, however, as I tinker with the maze, my website stands to...

FRIENDLY FRIDAYS—ATTACK WES WHITE
Not really. Wes White is our next contributor for friendly Fridays. We know it’s Saturday, but what are you going to do?
Wes is a man who has been contributing to Zineswap since day 1. Amazingly, Wes is up to issue 14 of his zine Attack!!!! (that’s the title, I’m not being over-zealous with the exclamations). That’s one of the longest running titles we have in the...

Career Opportunities
So it is still Friday, my last Friday posting…
Thanks to Rob and Gordon for the invitation!!!
I was 20 years old when I had my first 9 to 5 job, and I promised to my self I wouldn’t try it again. The process of getting a job is just as bad as the actual working experience.
I was fresh out of high school, I had all this plans and working to get some money seemed like the short way to...

"To Thine Own Self Be True"
Behind tabletops of zines in all shapes, sizes and content, zinesters have been celebrating their DIY, make-your-own-culture ethic in small press events all over the world. The maxim from Shakespeare, “To Thine Own Self Be True”, aptly overhangs this year’s International Alternative Press Festival that was held in Holborn over the last weekend.

ZINE LIST
In preparation for today’s Alternative Press Fair at Conway Hall, we had to make a list of all the display copy zines we have. This isn’t a comprehensive list of all the zines in the archive, so if sent us your zine but don’t see it in the list, don’t sweat it, we still have it in the archive. As we tour the display copies things inevitably get stolen, lost, destroyed or...
Immediate & Remote
This should be a long post…
Being unemployed gives you the chance of having all the time in the World to do whatever you want or to do nothing at all, it’s like most of the things in life, up to you choosing what you want to do. A long long time ago my mom gave me a camera for me to use in school (I’m a drop out, but did go to school). The camera was a Yashica FX-3 Super2000, unlike the acoustic...

ALTERNATIVE PRESS FEST
Jimi Gherkin is an amazing man. You’ve probably seen him racing around on his bike with his wild hair blowing in the wind around New Cross. If you haven’t, that’s too bad. Anyway, his relentless effort and enthusiasm, along with that of a number of collaborators have brought us this years Alternative Press Festival (you read that right, Festival, not Fair).
Along with the...

I have to say that my biggest and only talent has always been the ability for relating to very talented people, other than that… Some of those acquaintances have turned into friendship and some have not.
Some of which did turn into friendship are MARTI and ROXI, they both happened to have a show last year at the GALERIA José María Velasco.

The two months I spent away from here it was a common thing to be asked about the current situation in Mexico, whether it was safe to visit or not, which places I’d say would be best to avoid. My answer was always the same, Mexico in general is a safe place to be, and worth to be experienced.
Mexico City for example is definitively not safe as for you to walk around with your DSLR camera hanging...
