lost dreams 4



LOST DREAMS 4
mostly a cut n paste zine with numerous contributors from around the planet. I made & arranged the zine with co-editor Claire Leaper. It had been about 10 years since i had done a zine so this is what happened when i got back into it. think Andy Bald Cactus did the printing. i was a student nurse at the time so i used to do it after my shifts finished & on the rare days when i wasn't doing agency work (so i could afford to live!). I think its the most punky of the Lost Dreams zines.

the doorway...

white door (with loadsa graffiti) leading into my teenage bedroom (black walls [!!!!!] and beermats & beer towels), it seems like just yesterday when i'd escape into there & play 'troops of tomorrow' by the exploited or listen to 'bloody revolutions' by crass....ooooh the ambiguity but it was all just PUNK to me!

You and Me March 2002




the sex issue! I had read previous you and me zines & found them thought provoking & inspiring. imagine my surprise when this issue was based around sex...informative articles, etc.

art strike 1990-1993



http://www.mediafire.com/?jmz92t91y5m



not quite a zine...more a manifesto! it arrived in my hands as I was just about to embark on the next 5year plan....go to art college. yet it was saying 'i should strike' WOW what a dilemma. i went to Jacob Kramer art college then on a wednesday evening after voluntary work at west yorks peace centre. I remember i DID go on strike - which meant not drawing in life class....ignoring the 'still life' & discussing with the tutors what being on strike meant, why i was doing it, what i hoped to achieve. after a week maybe 2 it was back to the a.r.t.
