THEE DATA BASE (92 - 97)
Occulture & activism magazine; seven issues + web site
Edited by Alan Benzie & Stuart Buchanan

from press release (94):
"thee data base is stuffed to the gills with news, features and ideas that serve to show that the reader does not have to accept all that SHe is shown. conspiracies, pranks, injustices, alternative technologies, new religions, virtual reality, literature, drugs and a good helping of mouthing off at the government is the nub of our gist. it is a magazine that hitches a ride with the 'counter culture', the 'anti-society' that exists on a global scale. it accepts none of society's conditioning and believes unequivocably in the freedom of information, freedom of expression and, ultimately, the freedom of the individual. we look to the works of burroughs, leary and anton wilson for inspiration, but will continue onwards, inviting articles and opinions from like-minded souls, striving towards an international network of positive thinking individuals. this process is aided by the fact that thee data base is available free of charge. join the network, spread the word, and reserve the right to change your mind at any time."
