"Arrows to Mercury. This is only the beginning. Out there, somewhere right now, the jargon is forming, a common vocabulary that will express the intellectual and moral graduation currently underway in the human mind. the vocabulary will be the shift itself, the birth of a fresh cognitive/linguistic model of the universe, one to overthrow medieval Christian and Muslim cosmologies, one to expose and neutralize globo-capitalist oligarchy. They are all self-destructing already, failing to adapt. It is now impossible for a person to carry on in these obsolescences without devoting most of their thoughts to fantasy and denial. Evolution exploits such niches. And so now so are we, sitting over a hell-mouth of self-editing, self-selecting psychostructures, eavesdropping and taking credit. But that's all any art has ever been. The overmeme is writing itself through us, through you now. We are its million monkeys at our million keyboards, unconsciously bringing it to life. Byzantine and paranoid. Only a rough draft."

That's from the opening editorial statement of a new zine called Psychedelic Science-Fiction. I have ten copies, and if anyone would like one, please drop me a line at cosmiccommunist@hotmail.com. All it will cost you is a SASE if you live outside Canaduh. If you're a local, it's free.

They do have an online presence, but because the project is so new, the site is still very much under construction. Anyway, you can have a peek here www.psychedelicsciencefiction.com

for contact info and submissions guidelines, etc.

If you're a fan of visionary sci-fi, it looks to be something worth keeping an eye on.
