"like
all of my writing projects, this is not a story, a zine, or a collection
of thoughts...this is a scientific experiment. it is a documentation of
myself, my life, my reality, and spefically how my disease (note: korinna
was diagnosed with bipolar) and it's treatment are affecting "me".
i'm writing this as raw as the "me" i now can write something,
because i want to see if i can still do this. if the"me" i have
always known is still the"me" i am now. i want to see if i can
still live my concept of rock star with words (or am i a robot?)"
I really like Korinna's zine (and her graphics!) and so I thought I ask her a few questions - and here they come! |
What
do you do besides your zine? For
how long have you been running your zine now? How many issues did you
put out until now? Are you the only editor or is there a team? What
made you decide to start this project? How did you come up with the
idea and the name? What
topics are most often discussed in your zine? What
do you hope to accomplish by establishing your zine? What
does zine making (and reading) mean to you? What do you love about zine
making? What ís the most challenging aspect of making zines? What
was your first exposure to zines? How did you find out about them? What
have they come to mean to you?

Do
you consider grrrl zines as an important part of a movement of sorts?
Do you think zines can effect meaningful social and political change? What
does the zine community mean to you?
|
|
What
advice would you give others who want to start a zine? What
are some of the zines you admire? Could
you please describe a little bit the grrrl zine community in your country?
What
are the most pressing issues you are confronted with in daily life (as
a woman/feminist)? Are
you active in the feminist movement? What
do you think about feminism today? Do you see yourself as part of Third
Wave Feminism and what does it mean to you? Which
role plays the Internet for you? Does it change your ideas of making
zines and doing/reading zines? Do
you have any suggestions? Something you want to add? |
