I use outdated technology just for fun, listen to crappy music, and watch a lot of horror movies. Expect posts about These Things. I talk a lot.

Check tags like Star Trek Archive and Media Piracy to find things I share for others.

that is the title of my new zine, which you can download now!!! it's available in browser too but to get the full experience, you should download Decker and open it with that (this is also a ploy to get more people to use Decker, which i love very much)

the zine's free but donations are highly encouraged on account of i'm very broke :)

this is Rad as Fuck and very much A Specific Aesthetic in a good way!

It is very good seeing other people play around with decker because it helps inform my own efforts, in a sense of "ok, here is someone using the same tools as me, in what way is their aesthetic similar or different to mine" in like forming a sense of my own style as distinct from others, like what parts naturally flow from the medium and what parts flow from like our own pasts and idiosyncracities.

anyway please check out nicky's work! there are cool sounds and such! And a really good overall consistency of feeling and ambition with the medium that is extremely great! I hope it comes across that I think this owns!

in reply to @nicky's post:

this was really, really the thing I needed to read about this stuff right now; I think if I went into detail I'd mostly be saying what you already said so I'm gonna go link this to people on account of it whips ass.

and also just the experience of going through it is great. this feels so much like a photocopied zine in a way I don't think I've seen before, not just in the overall look of it but in how it's structured around the combination of typing, handwritten/drawn elements, and photos that have started to be from another dimension when reproduced in black and white. This is a real cool program and an awesome thing to make with it.

I loved the structure of this! The fact that I couldn’t be confident that I had seen/read everything was simultaneously frustrating and appealing. Like I needed to embrace the lack of closure and the fact that exploration and discovery was part of the experience.
