Today is the release of the "(A) Beatnik Bum Zine". We have got our hands on an official advance copy of the zine. We enjoyed it & recommend everybody to go download it. The zine is a (DIY [Do It Yourself] magazine) capturing the mind of an existential lover in regards to political/social/musical tastes of the beatnik bum himself. This zine includes art, poetry, lyrics and cartoons and anything else that will make this sentence redundant. DOWNLOAD THE "(A) BEATNIK BUM ZINE" FREE PDF HERE!
We were able to get an interview with the author of the zine, The Beatnik Bum himself. Check it out.
HIDS: Who and what is (A) Beatnik Bum Zine?
Beatnik Bum: A Beatnik Bum Zine is the writings and sketches of the Beatnik Bum himself. I, The Bum, have tried to create this depiction of life through the eyes of a youth living and feeling the waves of the energy for the first time.
HIDS: Are you new to the Zine scene?
Beatnik Bum:I've been making zines in the past, have taught workshops on zine making and edited/published many. I say I've been around 3 years.
HIDS: What inspired you to make this zine?
Beatnik Bum: Looking through old zines, I regained that joy for zine making. My past is what made me revisit the zine scene.
HIDS: Is there a targeted audience for this zine or is it for everybody?
Beatnik Bum: This zine is for anyone who is interested in the mind of an anti social who struggles with identity and the lessons of the cruel world.
HIDS: How does this zine differ from any of your earlier work?
Beatnik Bum: This zine is more personal whereas others have focused on socio-politikill issues.
HIDS: After a person is done reading the zine, what is the message you want that person to get?
Beatnik Bum: I think I just want people to keep reading and see that there is always a war for your mind whether it is external (ie. Capitalism) or internal such as depression.
HIDS: How can people who are interested help out the cause?
Beatnik Bum:I haven't really thought of that. DIY man. Everyone can create their own media, their own world. Just start thinking in a positive way to change the world and we can all make this the world we wanna see.
HIDS: Shout outs?
Beatnik Bum: Shout out to Geronimo, Bernie, Jojo and my girlfriend Jasmin who have all been very supportive. Also I would like to thank David for helping with the scanning and Massive for helping with uploading pdfs. Much love to those I've left out.
