Paul O'Donovan : "The rebirth of Ra-Atum-Khepri, occurring during an Interzone Coffee-break T.V. commercial, causing a partial eclipse over the Westernlands."

Hi all,

Summer news: a number of anniversaries , festivals,  and the twelfth anniversary of Interzone. I delayed the sending of this report hoping I could finish the compilation of "The Time of the Naguals" before, but there is so much to include in it that it came out it was impossible.

12th anniversary of Interzone

Interzone started 12 years ago, on August 10 th 1997, some days after Burroughs passed away on August 2nd. Zoners who live in the same area can get in touch through the Interzone Coffee House at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/theinterzonecoffeehouse/ and fix an appointment at the date and place they choose.

For virtual meetings,

If a physical meeting is going on somewhere, it can be linked through computer with a meeting on the net in a chat at the same time, and a video chat would allow us to get in touch wherever we are in the world. Jim suggests to use Stickham free video chat at  http://www.stickam.com/chatRoom.do I am creating a chat room there called "Interzone".

To use it, you must see the page at http://www.stickam.com/howto/index.do to connect with your video system.

For those who do not use a web cam, they can also use the plain chat of the forum Interzone at http://interzone.forumotion.com/ , but you have to join first and log in to access to the chat-room.

Interzone literature

"The Time of the Naguals" : articles, poems, cut-ups and theater :

The contents :

Beside the writings, I shall add to this compilation the CD of music : "Interzone compilation I", which was gathered by Paul Sinclair in the early 2000. It was on line some years ago and then disapeared from the net, so the only Zoners who have it are the ones who were part of it then, about 15 people including Paul Sinclair and me.

There also are the paintings and illustrations. A part of them are illustrating the different tomes of the writings, but there are so many than they would deserve another CD by themselves.

So this is a rough map of the work done until now.

Publication and sale:

The other important point is the publication: I foresee to make it through Interzone Editions  http://www.inter-zone.org/editions.htm, on CD, because it's not possible to print the different tomes as books with the home-made way I use. So we must see the price of it, knowing that for the people who were part of them, the cost will be limited to the price of the CD and post fees if they want it on a CD, or transmitted through a mail in pdf files, for free.

For the other people out of Interzone, we shall have to determine a price, and as it is a collective work, see together what to do with the money which will come from it. You can refer to the articles written on  a non-Aristotelian economy :

I New data on money: what are we talking about exactly? : http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/gsmoney.html

II Application of those data in the context of the Zone : http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/gsmoney2.html

III Proposition to experiment a zone of free exchange (latest version: April 21st 2000) : http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/gsmoney3.html

IV A non-Aristotelian economy (january 2002) and B. Proposition of a community structure at the scale of Interzone : http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/gsmoney4.html

V. Académie 23: january 2004 : http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/gsmoney5.html

VI January 2006 : a non-Aristotelian globalization ? : http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/gsmoney6.html

VII January 2009 : Interzone Editions: experiment of a non-aristotelian economy : http://semantiquegenerale.free.fr/gsmoney7.htm  

The rest of the doc on a non-Aristotelian economy, based upon general semantics, is accessible from the page http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/economy.html for those who read French.
