2. NETBEGGING FOR LAPTOPS

The perpetually low income members of Negativland are looking for a few free or cheap Mac laptops so we can manage to travel and actually stay on top of all our “negativ” stuff. If you have an Ibook or G3 laptop (Pismo’s especially) you'd like to give away or sell for cheap to a good cause, write to mark [at] negativland.com

 

3. BRAND NEW NEGATIVLAND BOOK/CD RELEASE FOR 2002

Well, it’s official. After many years of work, Negativland’s latest conceptual opus "DEATHSENTENCES OF THE POLISHED AND STRUCTURALLY WEAK", will be released in September, 2002. Poignant, funny, sad, voyeuristic, disturbing.....this 64-page 6 x 12 full color book with die-cut outer sleeve and 44 minute long studio recorded CD is a very elaborate and unusual new project from Negativland.

We’ll let you know more about it when we have more news on when we'll have actual copies available from our website.
