Have you ever built a latrine?
-Where and why did you construct the latrine?
-Was it permanent? If not, how long was its life span?
-How did it function? Good? Bad?
-What was unique about your latrine?

am putting out a call for submissions for issue 4 of razor sharp haze daze. was originally going to be a perzine but now it will be a compilation issue. it will also be subtitled "the sock issue". everything and anything pertaining to socks: love them or loathe them. contributors can send in stories, poems, drawings, comics, etc. this is a chance to let your creative juices flow. i'm a lover of polka dotted and stipped socks so that's where the idea for this issue came from. submissions can be sent via smail mail, message box or email and all contributors will recieve a free issue of the zine in their mailbox. deadline for submissions is November 30th but if you need an extension, i will accomodate you. thank you all in advance!

Comment by VAMPIRE SUSHI DISTRO on September 3, 2010 at 5:58am

i had an idea at work the other day that me and carl should make a little horror themed art zine for halloween etc & to celebrate vampire sushi's 1ST BIRTHDAY. and then i thought "why keep the fun all to ourselves, WE SHOULD MAKE IT A COMPILATION ZINE!"

so yes, we are looking for submissions! drawings, photographs, collages, embroidery, anything! also considering horror stories and reviews of horror films! the zine will be quarter size / a6 but your piece doesn't have to be that size necessarily, we're perfectly able to resize things on the photocopier..

the main theme is vampires (of course) but other monsters & horror creatures / themes are welcome too. anything related to twilight is not welcome, unless its taking the piss out of sparkly 'vampires'.

we'd especially love zinesters we distro to take part in this compilation.

DEADLINE IS SEPTEMBER 26TH 2010

for more info email us at vampiresushidistro at gmail.com

xx tukru & carl

i just recieved this from a friend in Turkey ---

even my mum can make a book

fanzines, zines, independent publications and artist books are acting as a response to the mainstream media with an activist manner. as they are a way of understanding our relation with society and even with ourselves, maybe slower but more attractive for sure.
however in times of limitless possibility to spread information virtually through the network; communication with printed material is decreasing. the proportion of people who make zines and people who write blogs or collect images of everything is a good example for this. but actually arranging collages, drawings, texts, photos etc. on paper, as a medium itself, has so many possibilities that adds more value to our thoughts.

the aim of the project is to bring together independent publications and to encourage people to distribute their ideas, thoughts via printed or handmade materials. it is about to share obsessions, passions and things in your mind on paper that can be shuffled and touched. it is an open call for everyone to enhance these form of expression!
all these publications are going to be collected in form of an archive that is continuously extended and meant to be traveling through different venues in turkey and abroad.

first exhibition will take place in 15th september 2010 in manzara perspectives in istanbul.

so everybody, we are waiting for you to make your own editions, or send the ones you already did. you are completely free about topics and format, you can even ask to your mother to collaborate with you.

we want people to go home and lie on the floor and make zine!

send your editions until 31 of august to manzara perspectives
tatar beyi sokak 27 kuledibi beyoğlu
istanbul/turkey

please include, a short biography, full contact details, date of birth and nationality.
