Oddities Botha hear the young lions roar! was an article I co-wrote in the late '80s for Non-Stop Against Apartheid. The serious story of a young activist's torture in a South African prison may be undercut by the polemical flourishes of my Trotskyist co-writer. But she was the subject's sister and I was indebted to her for the material. Beyond Bedlam was a book review commissioned by the literary magazine, Ambit, in Spring 1998. The profile Back Hill's hidden history was written in February 1998 for London College of Printing's newspaper, the Back Hill Reporter. Battle of the space cadets was a film review for the Back Hill Reporter. Standard global satire was a review of Andrew Martin's novel "Bilton" for the Back Hill Reporter. London Institute Students Union published a magazine called Blue which commissioned a 2,000-word article about "electoral fiascos". My Pluggers, stuffers and personators was used as raw research for the rambling sub-gonzo piece that Blue subsequently published. I wrote a monthly diary column for a trendy, if short-lived, magazine, called D-TOUR, which was available in various London nightclubs. All three episodes can be found here. How to get laid on the internet was written in fall of 1997 for the first edition of Genie, a magazine intended for UK students. Those .exe files in full was the second feature written for Genie magazine in fall of 1997. Hurricane? Business as usual! was a color piece in Non-Stop Against Apartheid that drew complimentary mail from African readers. Photos as weapons was an art review commissioned by The Leninist before its editorial board denounced me as hostile to communism.
