Cut and Paste
Free from the constraints and constrictions that are imposed from mainstream professional publishing- the art of self-creating #zines is back, and more widespread than ever. Though you'll find fairs across cities, dedicated to showcasing countless zines made for countless causes, their production remains on an underground vibration. It seems that with technology increasingly becoming more evolved and accessible, people are seemingly turning away to an older, more simplistic and raw approach to self-publishing. In what could have been disastrous for amateur print, it's incredible that the Internet has proven to be a great catalyst for zine culture and the ensuing boom we find ourselves in. People can pull fanzines of all shapes and sizes from all across the world, building communities as it spreads. The isolation and alienation of teens, trapped in their bedrooms that are enshrined and obsessed with anything from the Stooges to Lord of the Rings is a thing of the past. You're not alone in your obsession over #Cuphead, #veganism or the number 3- your bible and fellow disciples are only few clicks away.
Always encouraging and fascinated by a #DIY approach, it is truly an insatiable moment when you realise anyone can get involved- regardless of where your skill sets lie. That's the real beauty of it, and the real beauty of subcultures in general. Zines go hand in hand with #subculture, rebellion, music and self expression. In fact, fanzines as we know them today, found their rise in popularity at the same time teenagers and subcultures started to appear on the streets. They originate from strongly opinionated political or religious pamphlets that were distributed to avoid publishing laws. Which is another enlightening point-it could appear that in times of political difficulty- the need to resist through cut and pasted seems to incline. The first usage of the word 'fanzine' stems from Louis Russell Chauvenet in 1940- and it was certainly post-war Dadaism built the foundations of the future aesthetics. Sci-Fi fanzines shortly followed the next few years, at the genre's peak.
