PopCornucopia

PopCornucopia is all about free associative pop culture tidbits as they strike my fancy, just like kernels of corn exploding into fullness at a random and unpredictable pace. And of course, the cornucopia is the horn of plenty.

Blasian goodness brought to you by Chimurenga

Check out Chimurenga's latest issue #14: Everyone Has Their Indian

Here are the two webvert videos.






They also got a great review in the Mail and Guardian.

I'm still waiting for my copy, but trust people, Chimurenga NEVER lets you down. Believe me, Ntone, Rucera, Liepollo, and that whole Chim crew put their big ol' brains, heart, and soul into every issue. And I know firsthand, having spent time working with them.

It is unlike any other magazine you've ever read. It pushes the boundaries, ideologically, aesthetically, literarily, textually, artistically, intellectually...Getting your hands on a copy is like coming into ownership of a small masterpiece, a bound and printed object that you can re-visit and re-read from so many different angles, awakening your mind at every turn.

At the very least, take a look at the website, which is chock full of amazing stuff. There's the Chimurenga library which is loaded with tons of radical (in both the TMNT and political senses) archival swag, the Pan African Space Station (PASS), replete with podcasts and other auditory treasures, and plenty of other things Chim.

What are you waiting for?
