Issue 10
Having noticed the proliferation of lifestyle magazines about I had a go at my own with the requisite picture of a steaming hot babe on the front. A bit of fashion, a bit of food, a bit of music, a bit of film, a bit international, a lot insipid. A noice pisstake of the genre (or lack of genre). November 2002.
Issue 9
By this stage my zine was well into its life as a Masters of Fine Arts project. Then, during critique, a lecturer asked, "Where's the art?" and I lost it. Where's the art does not mean, "This isn't art!" apparently, but I did not know that. So this issue became an ego-limping survey of a bunch of crap ideas. I lost my zine mojo, and wrote about it. October 2002.
Issue 8
The second exquisite corpse issue responds to the comic strip. Each of the six comic strips within starts with the same frame then departs wildly as a cast of thousands draw and write respondent frames. Only the frame immediately previous was seen by any contributor, meaning the narratives career all over. It's surreal! September 2002.
