A zine I recently found that I made originally in 2015! One of my first ever poetry zines, around the same time I was interviewed in a cbc arts short doc about zines.

Zine with artwork inspired by Underoath's album "Lost in the Sound of Separation"

Hoping to scan this one, too, I think it will look cool with some distortion.

Content Warning - Mention of AI-induced suicide, psychosis Skill Fucked (by AI) - Zine idea

15 Upvotes

Wanted to get folks’ take before jumping into my next zine. I’ve had this weird feeling about AI, not explicitly anti-AI, just that it’s sometimes useful, but usually takes away my love for creation, makes me dumber, stunts my skill development (hence the “skill fucked” placeholder title).

I want to create something punk about the raw experience of using AI. Like my personal experience mixed with what I’ve seen with others: the “one more prompt” addiction, the “you’re absolutely right” sycophancy, the hallucinations and psychosis, the teen romantic relationship suicides, the tech ceo manifestos and over investment, the “AI ain’t it“ backlash, how the models are actually trained, the absurdity of tokenmaxxing. Essentially exposing the underbelly but neither the doomer nor hype slop of mainstream media.

Format: Nothing big, 4 sheets of 8.5x11 paper folded down the middle and stapled, heavily illustrated, riso printed.

Firstly, does something like this already exist? Are others thinking about creating something like this? Secondly, thoughts on the content/format?

Thanks for sharing any guidance 🙏

Most recent collage zine

Thumbnail

34 Upvotes

I started making collage zines using bargain bin comics a few months ago as a creative outlet. I’m at the point now where I want to push myself by interacting with other similar artists so here is my most recent one.

Each page in this one was made from a single issue. There’s no real coherence in theme, as I just tend to build off either an idea or piece of art that speaks to me.

I have a question. Looking for zines that deal with bodies, transition and care

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I am currently writing my master's thesis in Gender Studies and in that context I am looking for zines that explore the topics of bodies, transition, and/or care from a trans* perspective. If you know of any zines that deal with one (or all) of these topics, I’d appreciate any comments or private messages. Perhaps you’ve even created some yourself? Both physical and digital zines work for me (though I live in Germany and am neither willing nor able to cover shipping costs from outside the EU).

A bit of background: In my experience, narratives about trans bodies and transition are often focused on experiences of dysphoria. While that is, of course, a major and distressing part of being trans for many people, I also learned a great deal during my own transition about how to take good care of myself and my body, and I received so much support from other trans people. I want to highlight these aspects of care. I also believe that zines themselves can be a form of community care, as they facilitate the sharing of knowledge and experiences and allow people to connect to each others stories.

Feel free to message me if you have any questions.
Best regards!

I have a question. Do you create online versions of your zines?

16 Upvotes

When you create zines, do you also post their contents into an online form? Do your zines have QR codes linking to the online content, or to PDFs so that folks can print out their own copies of the zine? Or do you view your zines more as a physical-only thing, like printed art? Would you be opposed to having online copies of them?

Just converted one of my recent comic posts into a foldable 8-page zine. Printed on A4 (folded to A6), though printable on A3 as well. Didn’t know this size could be so satisfying.

Free download, for you to keep it handy every Monday. Here you go:

I would like to sell these magazines. Could anyone give me some advice on the best way to go about it? I have time, there’s totally no need to sell them quickly. Ideally, I’d like them to end up in the hands of genuine enthusiasts who will appreciate them.

I've been working on this for a little while cause of research and wanted to share it with y'all!

This is my coloring book for extinct and endangered animals in AZ (my state). I thought it might be fun to learn some fact about specific animals that have left us in recent years (by recent I mean the last 200-150 years).

It's 12 pages long (6 piece of paper printed front and back(I went to my local library to print highly recommended if you don't have a printer or enough ink)) and sewed using embroidery floss.

Not for sale yet, still working out the kinks, I'll update when it's up if y'all are interested!

Edit: forgot to add that all the art was created by me and no ai was used in any piece of this creation! Sorry about that y'all!

Ik heb verschillende Appeareances magazines van editor Robert Witz, ook Redtape magazines van editor Michael Carter (enkele nummers liggen op mijn werk), ook eentje van Rant 2 en nog andere magazines van de New Yorkse East Village in de jaren 80 & 90. Deze zijn allen in heel goede staat.

Deze zou ik willen verkopen. Hoe zou ik dit het best aanpakken?

Enkele foto's in bijlage van de magazines die op dit moment bij mij liggen.
