There are many ideas in this world
Many many isms that float about
none are better than the rest
for everything is relative
pick your favorite
and live by it.
or
neglect it as if it were a horse lost in the sky.

Finally I am in a point in my life where I'm so overwhelmed with things I want to do that I can't seem to get myself to do them. To alleviate this stress, I have finally gone through this list of lovely links. Many of them have been dead for many years.
I couldn't bring myself to delete the old dead connections, so I have saved them in a section on the bottom (six feet under) of this page. RIP
Email me and let me know if you have any suggestions.

"1KRT is looking for short prose writers to publicize for free in a
new online magazine. We would love to see atypical, unique
short stories. We aim to be an outlet for writing that is both good
and unfashionable. We do not aim to create Hattie�s Cat Poetry
Homepage or Ophelia�s Tales Of Night Homepage: we want
good writing, serious and passionate writing."

Teaching Machine
Machine literature encompasses writings (ostensibly literary) which are machine-generated. This generation is structural, with writings assembled, synthesized, modified or constrained by machine systems. Such systems might include computer programming algorithms, mathematical equations, scientific theories, or, at the most basic level, artificial alphabetic structures such as acrostics or lipograms.
A "machine" need not be digital or fully automatic. A perfectly good machine system for a haiku might consist of choosing each word by letting a dictionary fall open to a random page and placing a finger in the text, then writing down that word.

Holy Eris! Years ago when I started this site, I happened upon a scanned copy of the Principia Discordia. I printed the entire thing out and bound it. It now sits happily in my bathroom at arm's reach from the toilet for anyone's perusal. Open up to any random page and any guest, already feeling awkward for using my clean, porcelain throne, will find themselves enlightened. Now, ten years later, when I google the words Principia Discordia, an overwhelming plethora of websites emerge! Fuck the hyper-links for now. You're just going to have to copy and paste until I get up the energy. Another alternative is to Google Principa Discorida.

Anti-art
"Anti-Art exists to be a universal multi-sensorial human language, open for all humans, giving us the
freedom to penetrate and destroy habitual patterns and perceptions taught and used in modern society; a
bridging of the gap between our inherited tribal element and the cerebral cyber element by utilizing the
rhythms of the body, machine, information flow and recognizing the past as a means to devise tools for
the present which enables us to project forward into the future."

CoConspirators of DeConceptualization (Co*Co*De*Co)
"Co*Co*De*Co,
or Co-Conspirators of De-Conceptualization was
created in a desperate attempt to leave art alone.
Co*Co*De*Co believes in freedom of expression
above all, though freedom from expression is even
better. Free time, free space, free will, free
thought is just as valuable as freedom from the
structure of time, freedom from the scattered
limitlessness of space, freedom from the pressures
of the pushy will and freedom from the confines of
intellectual imprisonment.
Co*Co*De*Co
spreads the word of de conceptualization
throughout the world with as little money as
possible and with virtual anonymity."
