423 zerø is live to-day only · · ·

Some­how the lot of us man­aged to get a rather com­plex col­lab­o­ra­tive web­site pieced to­geth­er in – pro­gram­ming time – un­der a week. I think the line I heard last week was,

“I thought you said this would be sim­ple?”

Well, it looked sim­ple to me. On pa­per. Yes, pa­per. That I scrib­bled all over with WE CAN DO THIS AND THIS AND THIS and wat about THIS with inky, inky pens.

BUT ENOUGH of all that. THE SITE IS LIVE and it’s con­fus­ing peo­ple in a very DADAist way – which is wat we sort of do.

There’s ex­per­i­men­tal mu­sic, in­ter­ac­tive throw your own words and fo­tos into our LIV­INGflom­m­mO­TION an­i­mat­ed stew – and some artists seem to think this is where you up­load your ZINE con­tri­bu­tions – cause of a, um, TYPO (now fixed).

BUT sub­mit­ting to our ZINE is the NEXT col­umn over, with the pages-like icon and the hand point­ing to SUB­MIT.

We think.

The lat­est is we couldn’t get the аVAN­GARDE FIlms …Я playlist to AU­TO­PLAY – which is im­por­tant for the FLOM­Mu­TO­Rie EX­PE­RI­ENCe – you’ll see why IF you HIT THE AR­ROW and IF your speak­ers are on.

Oh, and all this plays bet­ter on a lap­top, desk­top, some­thing big – tho we haven’t test­ed tablets or any­thing, re­al­ly.

KYLIE is also there, al­most look­ing at YOU and AS promised: AC­TU­AL SCREAM­ING.

If this doesn’t get you out of your STUCK AT HOME head to­day, well, we’ve done our best.

It’s all at www.flomm.us/423

In a few hours I’m go­ing to crank up In­De­sign and start mak­ing some ZINE gal­leys.

For now, SUB­MIT some­thing to our ZINE (you have un­til MID­NIGHT), play with the HTML-made shapes, throw some shit into the stew and pon­der why the AI writ­ings went where they did.

I’m still thrown by a lot of it.
