Many thanks to our sistahs in the Madeline Collective, who put on a fantastic exhibit at Nuit Blanche last weekend. Their 12 Hour Zine Machine featured a different artist group each hour with the task to make a zine in that hour. We were very lucky to be invited to the 2AM time slot, we had so much fun! And we all stayed awake! Also, thanks to artist Marta Chudolinska joining the Static eds, and everyone who sat down at the table for the fun.

The zines were based on themes that any passerby could write on a chalkboard. We chose:

  • cats
  • Big Brother
  • what choices should I make?
  • favourite movies as sandwiches
  • explosions weekly

CHECK OUT WHAT WE CAME UP WITH HERE!

This is the cover of our Nuit Blanche zine. By Marta Chudolinska.

This Saturday, Static’s going to feel like rock stars. Very, very newbie rockstars, in which we are under the spotlight for 50 minutes with everyone watching us do what we do. (The picture above explains it pretty darn well.)

We’ll be part of an awesome Nuit Blanche exhibit called The 12 Hour Zine Machine, run by the lovely Madeline Collective. Basically, different groups will each have an hour to create an entire zine based on ideas anyone watching (or even tweeting at) can write on a big Idea Board. Anything. Your idea can be the theme we write and draw to. People can even jump in and work on it with us! Once we’re done, the Madeline Collective will upload our pages and make our zine.

So! The Deets:

The Gladstone Hotel

This Saturday, the 29th

Static’s on from 2AM to 3AM

The Static team is Jessica Lewis, Melody Lamb, Aviva Cohen and Marta Chudolinska.
