It has been suggested that we replace the head of the male nurse on the back cover image (see attached) with some other head.....a gruesomely deformed woman, perhaps, or an alien of some kind....what do you suggest? Photoshop a different head on the nurse's body and send it back to me (Whimzy, editor-in-chief of ZiP, if you didn't know), or if you lack time or Photoshop skills, send it to me, and I'll wave my staff around and say some magic words and attach the head to the body for you.<br>

<i></i>Dear BP, <br>
<br>
<br>
Tony Longshanks LeTigre here, editor and creator of <b><i>ZiP: Zine
in Progress</i></b>, a new MegaZine for hackers, tech nerds,
squatters, occupiers, beautiful freaks and benevolent mutations of
every variety. ZiP hails from San Francisco and is inspired by and
focused on <a href="https://noisebridge.net" target="_blank">Noisebridge</a>
hackerspace in the Mission District, but we expect it to have a
global audience courtesy of the burgeoning network of hacker and
computer security communities and conferences worldwide. Though it
is more or less a hacker zine, its content is not exclusively
programming or code, but in fact a variety bag encompassing a broad
definition of "hacking," as you will see from the content list below
(see end of message).<br>
<br>
ZiP01, the first installment of ZiP MegaZine, launched on
Valentine's Day (Feb. 14), 2012 with a party at Noisebridge. A small
initial print run of 100 copies was distributed at the space. At the
same time ZiP01 went live in full-text, full color on <a href="http://zine.noisebridge.net" target="_blank"><b>ZZW</b></a>, the ZiP Zine
Website. It is available to read or download in its entirety, free
of charge. The downloadable PDF is print-ready (not in reading
order). Readers can also order print copies from us - <b><a href="mailto:zipzine@riseup.net" target="_blank">zipzine@riseup.net</a></b>
- at a cost of $7.00 per copy plus shipping. This price is hardly
more than the cost of printing. ZiP01 is 58 pages plus front and
back covers; the covers along with 6 additional pages are printed in
full color, the rest in black & white. Format is folio print on
letter size paper, meaning the size of a ZiP page is 8.5" high by
5.5" wide. (That may change with ZiP02, due out April 1st.) <br>
<br>
Please note that the pagination of ZiP is in Hexadecimal, rather
than the usual decimal format.<br>
<br>
We would love for <i>Broken Pencil</i> to review ZiP. <a href="http://zine.noisebridge.net/2012/02/zip01-is-online-now/" target="_blank">This</a>
post lists the options for online viewing and downloading, with
links to each. I recommend viewing the high-res JPEGs!<br>
<br>
Zinetically yours,<br>
