IN BRIEF

Crash Media's first print issue will be released in the middle of March.
The list of articles above is poor fiction and could be easily improved
with your help. We are looking for contributions in the form of text
(opinionated journalism, realism, spielism, fiction, scribblism), visual
material (faxed, scanned and finger-painted, posted and pixellated,
draw'n'dropped), cartoons, tricks, tips and DIY handbooks. We are
looking for the ten commandments of communication war, the tip of the
manifesto iceberg, the unwell and unfair state, wormholes in the new
economy, sound systems for virtual communities, street scouting, and
media travellers.

Deadline for all material is the 20th February '98. We favour text
within the 500 to 800 word limit–and we envy the capacity to make a
strong point with 200 words! Scans should be 300dpi and stuffed, send as
attachments (MAC or PC)–stamp-based mail is just as good. Currently we
are not able to pay contributors. Every contributor will receive ten
copies of Crash Media.

Crash Media will be extended through a digital forum. Threads generated
in Crash Media on-line will be selectively reprinted in the next issue.
The public access server in Manchester/Salford will be set up over the
next few weeks and will host Crash Media–URL will follow shortly, any
domain name suggestions welcomed.
