This edition will be focused on 'meatspace' or the physical world and will have a focus on the 'get out and do something'/activitist kind of angle. There will be a couple of articles focused on small D discordian activities such as Guerrilla Gardening, Sf0,the post Graffiti movement, PoserGASM (obviously that's a big D) and maybe some other real world stuff (like that Dreaming game... gosh if only we had links to whoever was responsible for that.)

Basically I'm going to do most of the hunting down of appropriate stuff, but  if there's anything in particular you know of, want to make, direct me to or whatever that you know fits in, send a PM or let me know or whatever.

Post 4 and you're doing an Intermittens Issue?

Well.  Welcome abroad.

Also: thinking of doing an issue myself-- Intermittens Vol XXIII.iii: The Ultimate Slack.

(do we have a slack issue? other than the ones not done?)

It's more a case of, I'd like to do an Intermittens issue, thus I've reached post four.

I suggest looking into LarpGASM and ArgGASM. LarpGASM specifically was pretty discordian AND pretty IRL -- and we could use some promotion ;-). Cram would be the man to ask for permission about specific documents related to that, probably.

I love it when people just dive right in around here.  Those people always end up being utterly legendary posters.

all my energy for those projects is now being channeled into the Dreaming

Yeah, this would be a great vector to spread buzz about the Dreaming.


I've also got the PDX Sunday Swordfights, and can get you some media from those events. Maybe I'll interview some of the Discordians that made it to Esozone, I think we had over 23 in a room at one point.... counting the reporter from High Times. Last year, Esozone has basically "open-sourced itself" as an Unconference (wikipedia), so that might be a good topic for an article.

I'm slammed with school this week, but I'll hit you up in a week or two for more focus.

I am really into the idea of a meat-space edition. I've been looking for good IRL gasms and OMF's lately, and I really dig the idea of putting together a colection of activities and related subjects. Seeing how I'm looking for activities, it pretty much puts me out of the runnings being a contributor to this particular issue, but I can't wait to read it! (ooh, suggestion: maybe do a little section towards the end with some "pull-out" posterGASMS.)

EOT and I are both pretty meaty, I bet we could contribute something.

Somehow.

Maybe just a pic of the bar around the corner where we had drinks with ECH, or a shot of my studio ceiling, insulated courtesy of ECH's meat.

By calling it meet-space rather than meat-space you leave out the whole potential theme of discordians together doing things with meat.
