Dear All,

Jika sedang ada kesempatan berjalan-jalan di Citywalk Sudirman, Karet – Jakarta, silahkan istirahat sejenak untuk melihat kota Jakarta dalam gambar kartun, yang bukan hanya dibuat dari sudut pandang kartunis profesional seperti Jitet Koestana atau Thomdean, namun juga dari sudut pandang ibu rumah tangga, karyawan, dosen, anak-anak 12 tahun, mahasiswa dan berbagai macam profesi serta usia lainnya.

Sastrawan Radhar Panca Dahana dan Budayawan Eros Djarot, turut memilih karya yang mereka sukai dari total 80 karya yang terkumpul menjadi 39 karya (sisanya ditampilkan pada giant screen dengan cara looping). Jika anda berkesempatan hadir, lihat di label karya tanda (R) untuk Radhar dan tanda (E) untuk Eros Djarot, jika ada tanda contreng pada huruf itu, maka itu adalah kartun yang mereka sukai.

Every Queen’s Birthday Weekend (6th – 8th of June), Australia’s brave cartoonists undertake ‘ComicKaze’ – an endeavor to draw 24 pages in 24 hours. http://www.ozcomics24.com

This Saturday, Cambodian comic artists will be lending creative support to their Aussie friends via a live web link from 8am to 8pm. Sunday morning will see new artwork posted from this Cambodian – Australian collaboration!

Art supplies and local technical support will be provided by Our Books, Cambodia’s comic art nonprofit, and web linkage will be hosted by ComicsLifestyle.com with the help of Café Living Room.

The 24 Hour Comic is a ‘free drawing’ session designed to unlock creativity. Our Books has been developing Project:24 to gradually introduce Cambodian artists to this unique exercise and the global comics community.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24-hour_comic

Artists are welcome to attempt the full 24 hours. Since this is a big task, we are offering a ‘Cambodian Variation’: a one page in one hour ‘Introduce Yourself’ comic, so Australian and Cambodian artists can get to know each other.
http://www.comicslifestyle.com/group/comikaze2009/forum/topics/cambodian-variation

Example:

We will have a scanner on hand for sharing comics and jam strips. Final efforts will be displayed at Café Living Room this coming month, and compiled into a small publication for Australia’s National Young Writer’s Festival.

Come by and see artists in action! Lend your enthusiasm to comic artists going the distance! Come by, log in and see them live, or check out the final art as we post it up on Sunday!

Event Time: 8am – 8pm Saturday June 6 2009.

Testing out a video chat room for this weekend. (If you can’t see it, you don’t have flash enabled.) http://www.ozcomics24.com

Thanks to Komala for organizing things on her side of the pond!

As per last October’s Global Drawing Day, we will be inviting Cambodian cartoonists to congregate at Living Room Cafe in Phnom Penh to produce artwork: one artist – one page – one hour. The theme? Introduce yourself. If we can get a ‘hello’ from Australian artists, we’ve got enough for a zine. Also game for jam strips.

More details to come!

First order of business: it’s almost time for Comikaze24, where a bunch of us attempt to draw a 24-page comic in as many hours! Festivities are over the Queen’s Birthday long weekend, so it’s time to start figuring out where you’ll be working on those pages!

If you live in Blacktown and are between the ages of 15 and 24, perhaps you would be interested in the upcoming zine workshop series at the Blacktown Arts Centre! Said workshops are being taught by zine master/baron Leigh Rigozzi, so you know they’re gonna be good. The workshops run on three Saturdays, starting from June 6, from 11am to 1pm. They’re free but you will need to sign up for the full program by calling Kate on 9839 6385.

Other bits: our next meetup is on the 13th of June at the Mars Hill Cafe and Supanova Sydney is from the 26th to the 28th of June. Crazy things are happening at Creative Sydney in the next couple of weeks. If you aren’t a member of Comics Lifestyle or We Make Zines yet, you should go take a look!

And don’t forget, the Comickaze Queen’s Weekend Challenge is coming up!

Dylan Horrocks:

Adrian Kinnaird has started a new blog following comics and pop culture in New Zealand. He’s reporting on locally produced comics, as well as comics-related events … (Free Comics Day in Onehunga, etc). He’s also made a really beautiful banner for the site (see above)! Let’s hope Adrian also posts some of his own very fine comics…

Preparedness comic book in multiple languages

To promote pandemic flu preparedness, Public Health – Seattle & King County has developed a 12-page comic book on pandemic flu. Targeting readers of all ages, this story tells the tale of a family’s experience of the 1918 influenza pandemic. It also explains the threat of pandemic flu today, illustrates what to expect during a pandemic (such as school closures), and offers tips to help households prepare.

18.-19.4.2009./ KOMIKAZE NA STRIPFESTIVALU “STUMPTOWN COMICS FEST” U PORTLANDU- OREGON/ Lloyd Center, Doubletree Hotel

“Komikaze preko bare”

“Naš blago pomaknuti stripovski kolektiv Komikaze predstavit će se ovoga vikenda, 18. i 19. travnja, na američkom Stumptown Comics festivalu.
Festival Stumptown Comics održava se u Portlandu od 2004. godine. Pokrenula ga je šačica stripovskih entuzijasta potaknuta nedostatkom stripovskih festivala koji u fokus
stavljaju autore, a ne toliko njihove likove. Počevši kao skroman underground festival Stumptown Comics je u ovih pet godina izrastao u festival koji privlači posjetitlje
diljem SAD-a. Komikaze će u sklopu festivalskog programa predstaviti svoja dosadašnja izdanja – printane antologije, albume i fanzine – te tako nastaviti seriju svojih
međunarodnih gostovanja.” | 17. travnja 2009.| PIŠE: STJEPAN JUREKOVIĆ
