#Parasiting Zineculture

##By Marc van Elburg

https://vimeo.com/345469237

Marc van Elburg reflects on his personal experience as a zinemaker who started in the early 90s: How did the arrival of online social networks affect the zine culture of the 1990s? How did zine culture adapt and survive, and what is its current state? From within Motel Spatie, a project has started to promote a conjunction between zine culture and parasitism: What are the motives behind this choice and why is this relevant today?

Marc van Elburg (NL) is an artist and zinester. He was the founder of experimental DIY noise theatre and zine library de Hondenkoekjesfabriek, and a curator for Planetart. Marc has published zines about parasiting, collective drawing programs, and the relation between so-called Grawlixes in comics and early Modernism. Currently he is looking after the Zinedepo zinelibrary in Motel Spatie in Presikhaaf.
