I’m putting out a zine….

You can find issue one at:

This first zine is a collection of transcripts on the attention economy, social media, and device use that have emerged as a recurring thread thought making permanently moved in the last 18 months.

Future Issues will include original/new texts alongside the show transcriptions on or related to similar topics. I’d also like to collaborate with folks too – please get in touch! I’m aiming for one every two months or so, maybe more frequently. Who knows.

Subscribing to SSRZ supports my online work and creative projects.

As a thank you, I send you my zine four times a year, just like it’s 1994.

No spam. No email. Cancel at any time.

Holiday

I’m actually on holiday right now. Writing this blog post on my pixel 3. However. Guttenberg is kinda cool on mobile. Wouldn’t want to do this all the time. But I have this week notes blog as a template now so its alright. Here’s a picture of me right now.

I’ve been working on LAP this week and also just took a look at this 20k word ebook I wrote in 2015 but never did anything with. Might clean it up. Do a hard edit and try and put it out before the end of sept.

I’ve been listening to some old synth wave tracks I made ages ago. Over and over on the beach.
