Independent Media Group subMedia (http://submediatv.com) has released its first DVZ (DVD/Zine) ‘‘Molotov’’ as a free download on the Bittorrent network. subMedia founder Franklin Lopez made the announcement last week, after the last ‘hard copy’ of ‘‘Molotov’’ was sold to a customer in Norway. ‘Our goal with this DVZ is not to make money, we simply want to spread art and information.

A suitable moniker reflects his philosophy about the 'zine. "Historically, the ‘Molotov’ Cocktail has been a weapon of the disenfranchised. It's cheap, easy to produce and deliver - the same principles we've used to produce this 'zine." The addition of ‘Molotov’, sees subMedia's influences spreading beyond video and visual art into print media. Lopez continues, |
