Discussions of fanzines are often in the margins of media and cultural studies literature but they do appear. A recent example is Chris Atton’s article Popular Music Fanzines: Genre, Aesthetic and the “Democratic Conversation” in Popular Music and Society (33.4, 517-531, 2010).
I was asked to talk about music fanzines at the Birmingham Zine Festival. This informal presentation relates my experiences of music fanzines around the end of the 1980s.

For the next two days I’m at the National Digital Inclusion conference in London. I’m here with a group of Birmingham bloggers brought together by We Share Stuff. We are running a social media surgery, to demonstrate technology to delegates and policy makers. We’re also running a fringe event in the evening to bring delegates together with those who couldn’t afford to attend the main conference. I’ve cut together a rough and ready podcast where the team introduce themselves. You can follow the conference on Twitter or the video stream.
