DIY

i was introduced to the fantastic (under)world of zines a few months ago when i stumbled upon a bunch of copies of zine publications in a tiny secondhand bookshop on charing cross road...it wasnt a surprise to find those in THAT bookshop as what i found there unmistakably surprised me on my every visit...

a half torn copy said: ''the message of a zine is, 'do your own zine.' the message of a glossy magazine is, 'buy this magazine and dont think for yourself.'''

the message is simple and yet very valuable : DIY as opposed to consumption is the way forward for a progressive culture...

meanwhile, i m blogging...wondering if blogs carry the same message as zines...?
