The Null Device
Remember the zine revolution of the 90s? That frenetic burst of
self-publishing that came before homepages, blogs and webcams, and
made celebrities of the likes of Pagan Kennedy and Chip Rowe long
before Jorn and Jenni hit the ideosphere. Then Sturgeon's Law kicked
in and came along millions of copycat zines; each a fountain of
disaffected slacker wit, all along very similar lines. The ones by
male authors would usually have a rant whinging about how girls say one thing
and do another, or something to that effect, and the ones by female authors
would have articles cataloguing irritating and inadequate ex-boyfriends.
