chrisdamitio is organizing an INCREDIBLE FUKN US ESSAY CONTEST” FABULOUS PRIZES! NO ENTRY FEE! :

“Aloha Zoners...thought there might be some interested in this... cd Details at http://www.fukn.us/2006/03/01/incredible-fukn-us-essay-contest-0-fabulous-prizes-no-entry-fee/

I am proud to announce on the spur of the moment THE INCREDIBLE FUKN US essay contest. The winner will win a gift certificate for $100 to  http://www.fuknbooks.com Second Prize will be a copy of Rough Living: An Urban Survival Manual (signed by yours truly), and third prize will be an I Love Fukn T-Shirt. Tell your friends, tell your enemies, tell everyone!

The specifics are these: Essays must be at least 1500 words based on one of the categories posted at http://www.fukn.us

All essays will be judged by me and a select group of friends and judged by content, voice, and message. We are not particularly concerned with grammar, though entries with no punctuation, all capitals, or other annoying affectations will be posted and mocked without any consideration.

All entries become mine to publish as I see fit and I am the ultimate judge. In other words, I pick the winners based on what I like best and I can republish your essays with the appropriate credit given to you without having to pay you silly royalties or anything else. My decisions are final. I won't change your essays in any way without first asking your permission.

I think there are enough intelligent readers here to make this fun…after all 1500 words is not much at all…you can make it up to 10,000 words, but I don't want to read more than that.

Winners will be announced April 14. That gives you something to look forward to on that dreaded day!

Have fukn fun.”

Chris Damitio, Chairman of the Fukn Bored (I must be to be doing this…)

Catalogue of Interzone 2006 :

 I have completely remade the catalogue for 2006, on several pages. They still are in construction as more must be added, but you can already see what is available at the moment  at the following pages :

Catalogue : http://www.inter-zone.org/catal1.html

Tee-shirts : http://www.inter-zone.org/catalts.html

Books : http://www.inter-zone.org/catalbooks.html

CD-DVD : http://www.inter-zone.org/catalcddvd.html

Illustrations : http://www.inter-zone.org/catalim.html

 The library at http://www.inter-zone.org/catalbooks.html is particularly thick and ends to look like a serious publishing catalogue.

 If you have more productions you want to add, please let  me know at i.aubert@interpc.fr and send me :

- the creations you want me to add to it,
- the references and prices you want for it,
- the email you use for paypal, so people can buy them on line.

See below about Zone economy.

 Economy :

 For Interzone creations :

 As far as the distribution is concerned outside the net, I am going to make a paper catalogue in  A4 and print it. I shall put it on line in Word , so you  can download it, print it and spread it around.

I suggest that we gather respective ideas about the selling of our creations :
- a strategy of advert which would fit the Zone spirit,
- a non-Aristotalian organization between the musicians of different countries,
- etc.

 For the exchanges, we can use the forum “Une économie non-aristotélicienne” (A non-Aristotelian economy) http://semantiquegenerale.free.fr/forum/viewforum.php?f=4 of the site “La Sémantique Générale pour tous” , in a rubric “Interzone Economy”.
