Hi-Rez: Electronic Journal for CyberBeatniks

 "we BURN in sticky floored 2 in the morning all night coffee houses
  ripe with APOCALYPTIC VISIONS and we rave at dawn in crumbling
  1700's farmhouses. we sizzle along the asphalt veins lacing the skin
  of the nation together in white high-finned cadillacs driven by
  madmen. we modulate the very aether itself with ecstatic rf
  emanations from beat loft radio studios. We are the
  cyber-beatniks...the DANGEROUS NEW ARTISTS..... the TECHNICIANS OF
  ECSTASY and we are all ENMESHED IN THE NET stuck together by the
  sweet and sticky text characters that form the dimensional glue of
  this here cyberspace......... we do not FIT the stereotypes and
  posings of pop subcultures: we are the cyber-beatniks and we are
  ALONE in our art theater magic alchemy yet we are TOGETHER here. A
  loose fuzzy grouping of mad artists and eccentrics who choose to
  SURF THE GREAT THUNDERING ROLLING TUBES OF AWESOME TECHNOLOGY rather
  than be consumed by the "post-apocalyptic angst" of it . A group of
  vision-seeking edge dwellers who are equally capable of activating
  deep woods ancient genetic codices with shaman rattle and drum!! we
  are the cyber-beatniks...CYBER-BEATS! and _HI-REZ_ is a journal for
  us of ideas, lives.....VISIONS"

CRAM: The Cyberspatial Reality Advancement Movement

In an effort to bring valuable information to the masses, and as a
service to motivated information compilers, a member of CRAM can help
others unfamiliar with Usenet `publish' their documents for
widespread dissemination via the FAQ structure, and act as a
`sponsor' knowledgable in the submissions process. This document is
being distributed under this arrangement.

We have found these compilations tend to appear on various mailing
lists and are valuable enough to deserve wider distribution. If you
know of an existing compilation of Internet information that is not
currently a FAQ, please contact us and we may `sponsor' it. The
benefits to the author include:

- use of the existing FAQ infrastructure for distribution:
  - automated mail server service
  - FTP archival
  - automated posting

- a far wider audience that can improve the quality, accuracy, and 
  coverage of the document enormously through email feedback

- potential professional inquiries for the use of your document in 
  other settings, such as newsletters, books, etc.

- with us as your sponsor, we will also take care of the 
  technicalities in the proper format of the posted version and 
  updating procedures, leaving you free of the `overhead' to focus on 
  the basic updates alone

The choice of who we `sponsor' is entirely arbitrary. You always have
the option of handling the submission process yourself.  See the FAQ
submission guidelines FAQ in news.answers. 

For information, send mail to <ldetweil@csn.org>.
