Disinformation® Editorial Master List
Alex Burns ([email protected]), 1999—2002

Comment (21st November 2007)

I first heard of the US-based subculture site Disinformation® when RU Sirius profiled Richard
Metzger for a 1997 issue of Australia’s 21C Magazine. When 21C ceased publication in 1998
Metzger suggested I write for Disinfo. I became the site’s editor in November 1999 when
Metzger began pre-production and shooting the Disinfo Nation television series for the United
Kingdom’s Channel 4. “The Internet can be like a black hole,” he warned me in an email.

For the next several years Disinfo ran a popular ‘webzine’ with dossier profiles of forbidden
knowledge, current socio-political issues and subcultural icons. Publisher Gary Baddeley and I
worked with a variety of writers including Sara Aronson, Nick Mamatas and Preston Peet. But
by 2002 the dotcom bubble had burst, the pre-millennial tension had ebbed, the September 11
terrorist attacks had occurred, and I was fast approaching editorial burnout. Disinfo’s Russ Kick
took over editing the site before establishing his influential Alternewswire and Memory Hole
projects. When I returned to the editorial helm, we soon had a new site version and a “day’s best
links” format. In 2007 we launched a user-driven version that enabled fresh fever from the skies.

During the ‘classic’ era Disinformation attracted both praise and criticism—often from the same
person. Our fans understood that Metzger and I both drew on diverse sources for
Disinformation’s editorial philosophy such as Jello Biafra’s injunctive to “become the media”,
Noam Chomsky and Edward S. Herman’s propaganda model in their book Manufacturing
Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media (1988), Paul Feyerabend’s “anything goes”
approach in Against Method: Outline of an Anarchist Theory of Knowledge (1975), and most
importantly, our knowledge of and direct personal experience with subcultures and practices.
Our critics attacked our brand and stance. Ultimately, some critics felt that Google’s dominance
in search made Disinformation obsolete because we could never cover everything in enough
depth. I felt Google like any tool augmented yet did not necessarily replace this ‘meta’ stance.

The following is an excerpt from the daily file I used to edit Disinformation throughout the
1999—2002 period, minus project tracking lists for contributors and about 75 pages of unused
hyperlinks. It was an early Google and pre-Wikipedia attempt to map out topics for
Disinformation’s future dossiers, aligned with Disinformation’s section categories at the time. I
started brainstorming this list with the explorers I had at hand—Mondo 2000, 21C, Austin’s
FringeWare store, Brian King & Stuart Swezey’s Amok Fourth Dispatch (1990) and Fifth
Dispatch (1999), Adam Parfrey’s Apocalypse Culture (1990), Russ Kick’s Psychotropedia
(2002), V. Vale’s Re/Search volumes—and went from there. I don’t claim credit or originality
for the material below: you should check out these sources and others for more reliable and in-
depth guide-maps to Chapel Perilous. The list is an artefact from a creative, experiential process.

The critics were right in one sense: I found on a daily basis that my strategic execution didn’t
always match the vision and intent. What I did find was unexpected: domain/taxonomy mapping
and site editing processes can lead to self-change if approached with the right understanding and
practice. Again, this insight isn’t new or original: it’s in the work of Douglas Engelbart, Sherry
Turkle, Pattie Maes, J.C.R. Licklider, Howard Rheingold, Umberto Eco, Robert Anton Wilson,
Greg Egan, Neal Stephenson and many others. For its attuned readers, Disinformation’s really
scary secret was how they used it for Timothy Leary’s “intelligence increase”, P.R. Sarkar’s
“alchemical ontological transformation”, or whatever metaphor you choose for self-realisation.
