The ever industrious mighty czar of zines around these parts, Bryce Galloway has just shared with me a priceless (well, actually it costs a few bucks I think) example of his newest iteration (#53) of his long-running publication Incredibly Hot Sex With Hideous People. The thematic emphasis this time around is a set of "instructional LUV CARDS for uptight professionals and other animals." The reader is meant to cut out 32 cards which can be held together within a fancy red pack which requires DIY assembly (aaah... the work involved in zine consumption!!!) According to the author: "When the day is feeling a little loveless, take a card at random. Follow the instructions on the card, preferably within the next 24 hours." A nice alternative to tarot or magic wizard inner-child decks. If you are interested, please do contact the publisher: stinkispinkis [at] yahoo.com. Bryce also just curated an exhibition of Aotearoa's zine makers at RAMP gallery in Hamilton entitled small press. (He does have good taste as he included zines by my three daughters). Bryce was also instrumental in initiating the recent Hamilton Zinefest.
