Signum -- the same folks who brought you "What Ever Happened to the 
Cyber Revolution?" -- have announced some changes this spring. Signum 
is a webzine and print anthology project covering culture, 
independent music/arts/media, the mind, and other stuff we think is 
neat (like alternatives to megacorporate consumer culture). The 
online 'zine now appears monthly at www.signumpress.com, and adds two 
new editors. Editrix Tiffany Lee Brown will also appear on the online 
Inkwell Conference panel on 'zines, May 4-18, with Heath Row, Mark 
Frauenfelder, and others.

Signum has brought on a new Contributing Editor, Daev 'the Reverend 
Hellshaw' Walsh, a Signumial friend since the days of the Fringe Ware 
list. Daev is known for skeptically hunting lake monsters on the 
Discovery Channel & BBC, writing for the Fortean Times, and 
investigating the paranormal in Ireland, as captured in BLATHER 
(www.blather.net).

Amy Jarrell is the new Curator for Freezone, an online gallery 
featuring artist profiles and digital/digitized artworks, along with 
original fiction, poetry, travelogues, and animation. Jarrell is a 
photographer and illustrator whose cool, bloglike diary MANGLE DOLL 
lives at mangledoll.diaryland.com.

A publicly-accessible online Inkwell Conference panel about 'zines & 
weblogs will happen May 4-18 at The Well. Participants include 
Tiffany Lee Brown (Signum, Hot Geeks!, Fringe Ware Review), Mark 
Frauenfelder (bOING bOING), Jerod Pore (Burning Knives, Poppin' 
Zits), Heath Row (No Drama, Karma Lapel, Media Diet, Zine World, 
Adhocracy), Gareth Branwyn (Going Gaga, bOING bOING, _Jamming the 
Media_), and Jon Lebkowsky (Unshaved Truths, Fringe Ware Review). Hit 
www.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/ to check it out.

Signum's May Day issue features an exploration of the human memory by 
Daev Walsh, an investigator of the paranormal... Brad Brace's 
12hr-ISBN-JPEG Project... Posthuman Politics with Bill Cummings... MJ 
Rose's online Paradise for book lovers... and a dive into the 
beautifully fringe, completely independent ambient music label 
Hypnos. Yep, it's all at www.signumpress.com.

PS: Signum offers congrats to contributor Pighed (a.k.a. Mark 
Meadows) for his Webby Award nomination.
