What is a 'zine'?
A zine is a collection of self-published work containing original and/or appropriated texts and images. It is most commonly a small magazine that is produced cheaply by one person, or by a small group of people, about a subject they are interested in. It can also be a collection of digital entries arranged in such a way as to tell a story.What is a free culture?
Free culture is a growing understanding among artists and audiences that people shouldn't have to ask permission to copy, share, and use each other's work; it is also a set of practices that make this philosophy work in the real world.Can I post your work on my blog / website / social media?
Yes! If you like anything you see, be creative and make something rad. Copying art is an act of love: please copy and share!Credit is appreciated, but not required.
