Gather round & listen to what I have to say. This world is waiting for a new power to arise & we are it. I have been creating street level, greasy, dirty, weird & empowering culture since I was a little kid. I teamed up with my wife Katie Aaberg in 1999 & she exponentially increased our ability to create & quality of dynamic cultural platforms. Here are some of them.Created the GOBLINKO MEGAMALL as a way to spread our cultural values to people who wanted to buy products based on them. Rooted in the back pages of old comic books & sleazy magazines - each GOBLINKO product is designed to be a seed.Published PORK magazine which revived Weirdo Art as a viable art methodology & lifestyle, brought Rock&Roll back as a big-tent subcultural platform, launched the patch & pin crazes & reintroduced the importance of non-conformist philosophical expression into the subcultural milieu. Created DUNGEON DEGENERATES as an immersive fantasy world for everyone to play in & explore which reinforces our cultural values while being an exciting alternative to lackluster reality. Published Goblin’s Armpit zine creating the Medieval Punk idea & converted countless kids to the glory of Punk Rock & cider.Published GO! zine & established a coherent & exciting vision for the future.Co-founded Nonchalance & Oaklandish - jamming the animating soul & gristly history back into a rapidly gentrifying Oakland with an emphasis on art.Co-created the Whiteaker Art Walk in Eugene & gave the town a new sense of cultural optimism which climaxed with Eugene hubristically naming itself “America’s Greatest City of the Arts & Outdoors”.Co-created BANG! weekly newspaper in Eugene as an alternative to the alternative weekly.By supporting my work, we will be able to grow our operations & provide more free content & turn on more people to our values. As we move forwards into the future & things we took for granted get buried in so much digital dust - we must rebuild & reanimate them to do battle again on the cultural killing fields.thank you!Sean Äaberg -- source link
