To invent stories about a world other than this one has no meaning at all, unless an instinct of slander, belittling, and suspicion against life is strong in us: in that case, we avenge ourselves against life with a phantasmagoria of another, a better life.
(F. Nietzsche, Götzen-Dämmerung)

[ Issue 2008.11; Cover art (c) 2008 Chris Cartwright ] Speculative. Cyberpunk. Dark.

We founded this magazine as an experiment in and a celebration of new writing. New not only as in recently composed and previously unpublished, but as in original. Creative. Inventive. Experimental. Postmodern. Speculative. Meaningful. Our primary aim has always been to publish fiction and art of the highest quality and with a social conscience (see the Manifesto for a more detailed explication of this agenda).

Please get in touch if you would like to comment on any of our content, make requests, or vent your spleen on any topic of interest to the speculative and cyber communities. Your input is all important. No zine is an island.
