Slideshow & Lecture starts at approx. 7 PM.

Underground publisher Adam Parfrey presents a second coming
of America�s darkest shadow side in Apocalypse Culture II,
the completely new sequel edition to what was called by
J.G. Ballard "the terminal documents of the twentieth
century." The original Apocalypse Culture, an underground
best-seller since its emergence in 1987, going through 13
printings, has remained a huge influence on popular
culture. The sequel delineates further regions of the
Forbidden Zone, the psychic maelstrom that everyone knows
exists but fearfully avoids.

Subject matter includes:
* the biological resurrection of Jesus Christ via modern
cloning technology,
* interviews with a convicted murderer and cannibal turned
celebrity,
* recipes for cooking babies,
* homonculi,
* pedophilia,
* a re-enactment of the 914 deaths that occurred at
Jonestown in 1978,
* a report on Bobby Beausoleil, his art, and his prison sex
life,
* the farthest out conspiracy of all with reasons to take
it absolutely seriously,
* letters sent to Anton LaVey�s Church of Satan,
* a sample necrocard for those who wish to donate their
body to necrophilia,
* steps to overcome masturbation,
* the replacement of human mates with expensive
masturbatory devices,
* fecal black magic,
* mind control via advertising, and dozens of other
compelling examples of our own Apocalypse Culture.

Observing that society has been infantilized by being told
at every opportunity how to think and what to believe,
editor Parfrey refuses to provide easy moral lessons in
Apocalypse Culture II, though he supplies pertinent
information before and after many articles to assist the
interpretation of thoughtful readers. Some will find the
contents quite shocking, but that, according to Parfrey, is
not his primary purpose. This is an examination of
sociological truths that speak of the culture that both
created and ignore them.
