These papers served many functions. They discussed drug experiences and reported on local news and events, from concerts to protests and police brutality. They reviewed the newest psychedelic rock albums, published poetry and artwork, and sought to challenge their readership (and, by extension, mainstream America) by introducing new and radical ideas. They reprinted communiques from leftist organizations such as the Black Panthers, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), and, later, the Weather Underground.

  • Alessandro Ludovico
    POSt- DIGITAL PRINT The Mutation of Publishing since 1894 Alessandro Ludovico ONOMATOPEE 77 In this post-digital age, digital technology is no longer a revolutionary phenomenon but a normal part of every- day life. The mutation of music and film into bits and bytes, downloads and streams is now taken for granted. For the world of book and magazine publishing however, this transformation has only just begun. Still, the vision of this transformation is far from new. For more than a century now, avant-garde artists, activists and technologists have been anticipating the development of networked and electronic publishing. Although in hindsight the reports of the death of paper were greatly exaggerated, electronic publishing has now certainly become a reality. How will the analog and the digital coexist in the post-digital age of publishing? How will they transition, mix and cross over? In this book, Alessandro Ludovico re-reads the history of media technology, cultural activism and the avant- garde arts as a prehistory of cutting through the so-called dichotomy between paper and electronics. Ludovico is the editor and publisher of Neural, a magazine for critical digital culture and media arts. For more than twenty years now, he has been working at the cutting edge (and the outer fringes) of both print publishing and politically engaged digital art.

  • Freeing Voices of Dissent in the Underground Newspaper Collection
    Laurie Charnigo Prisoners of Microfilm Freeing Voices of Dissent in the Underground Newspaper Collection “We are a people, and a people must have their own voice, and that voice is the underground press.”1 - Thomas King Forcade 1. Bad juju I put the finishing touch on the display case in the lobby of our library, a sign in bold newsprint: “Come Explore the UPS Underground Newspaper 41 Collection (1963-1975)!” Stepping back to admire my creation, I almost had to brace myself against the dizzying psychedelic collage of graphics. This display screamed not only “Look at me!” but “Damn! I’m cool!” And oh how cool it was covered with photos, comics, and covers from a wide range of colorful Vietnam-era ‘underground’ newspapers. The bright art of Black Panther’s Emory Douglas shouted “Power to the People!” Psychedelic covers of the San Francisco Oracle flashed Vedic Motifs, bearded gurus, and hookah- smoking shamans. Gilbert Sheldon’s Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers and Trina Robbins’ feminist superheroes playfully danced throughout the display. There were photos of protesters marching for civil rights, gay rights, women’s rights, and in opposition to the war in Vietnam. There were raised fists of solidarity, peace signs, concert posters, a real lava lamp (which I hoped wouldn’t burn the library down), and covers of the Berkeley Barb, Avatar, the Los Angeles Free Press, and many others. Books about the Vietnam-era underground press were featured prominently throughout the display, such as Ken Wachsberger’s extensive Voices from the Underground series and John McMillian’s Smoking Typewriters: The Sixties Underground Press and the Rise of Alternative Media Laurie Charnigo is education librarian at Jacksonsville State University in Alabama.

  • The Underground Press
    Catalog #4 The Underground Press Boo-Hooray Catalog #4: The Underground Press Terms: Usual. Not onerous. Boo-Hooray is proud to present our fourth catalog, dedicated to the 1960s and ‘70s underground press. For over a decade, we have been committed to the organization, stabilization, and preservation of cultural narratives through archival placement. Today, we continue and expand our mission through the sale of individual items and smaller collections. We invite you to our space in Manhattan’s Chinatown, where we encour- age visitors to browse our extensive inventory of rare books, ephemera, archives and collections by appointment or chance. The newspapers and magazines presented here–along with innumerable peer publications–established a trans-Atlantic network of underground press. This network provided an alternative to mainstream news and culture outlets, which had proved to be inept at covering the rapidly evolving social and political landscapes in Western Europe and Amer- ica. Though each had its own focus, these publications share histories of government prosecution, censorship, and surveillance; an animating mission of pushing the boundaries of cultural and political discourse; and shoestring budgets. Taken as a whole, these publications present a wide view of the countercultural zeitgeist of the 1960s and 70s. Catalog prepared by Beth Rudig, Director of Archives; Evan Neuhausen, Archivist; and Daylon Orr, Director of Rare Books & Manuscripts. Layout and design by Maya Fell. Please direct all inquiries to Daylon ([email protected]). All items subject to prior sale. Payment may be made via check, credit card, wire transfer or PayPal.

Rich�d Deakin r Presented as part of the requirement forthe award of the MA Degree in Cultural, Literary, andHistorical Studies within the Postgraduate Modular Scheme at Cheltenham and Gloucester College of Higher Education June 1999 11 DECLARATIONS This.Dissertation is the product of my own work and is. not the result of anything done in collaboration. I agreethat this. Dissertationmay be available forreference and photocopying,. at the discretion of the College. Richard Deakin 111 ABSTRACT Whateverperspective one takes, contradictions in the relationship between the capital and the provinces have always been evident to some extent, and the British undergroundpress of the late 1960s and early 1970s is no exception. The introductoryfirst chapter will definethe meaning of the term 'underground' in this context, and outline some of thesources used and the methodologies employed. Chapter Two will show how the British underground press developed froman alternative coterie of writers, poets, and artists - often sympathisers of the Campaign forNuclear Disarmament movement. It will also show how having developed from roots that were arguably provincial the undergroundadopted London as its base. The third chapter will take a more detailed look at the background of some London and provincial underground publications andwill attempt to see what extent the London undergroundpress portrayed the provinces, and vice-versa. In Chapter Four actual aspects of lifein urbanand rural settings, such as communes, squats, and pop festivals,will be examined in relation to the adoption of these lifestylesby the wider counterculture and how they were adapted to particular environments as part of an envisioned alternativesociety.
