Punto de Fuga

So summer is gone leaving no epitaph is a book-cassette, which pays homage to a possible end of the world and accompanies it with an interesting soundtrack. As if all the counter-culture was merging into a small booklet to accompany difficult days. The fanzine was designed and edited by Rafael Augusto and Isabel O'Toole of El Futuro Ediciones. The risograph and silkscreen prints were made at Casa Rat Trap and Taller Colmillo in Bogota, two collectives of graphic artists that work with punk music groups and independent artists of the Bogota underground culture.


This is a fanzine published in 100 copies, which goes beyond photography. The juxtaposition of images from dystopian music, film and literature speaks of a process of appropriation through the image that is very interesting. The fanzine is presented as a 46-minute primer to face "the dark days ahead". The book takes excerpts from 1984, Decoder, A Clockwork Orange, All watched over by machines of loving grace, Tetsuo, Punishment Park, Akira and others?


Among the main texts included in this publication are an essay by Allan Gardner entitled Cronenberg, Ballard and The Fire Sale Dystopia, poems by Arseny Tarkovsky and Richard Brautigan and some illustrations by Juan M. Rosero.
