Detailed text:
Mazine.ws, pronounced MA Zine, is a student led online magazine. It encourages contributions from anyone interested in digital and networked culture.
Based on the content management system Drupal, it offers a growing variety of features, from blogs to feeds, forums and feature articles.
During the month-long Node.London season of media arts Mazine.ws commits itself to intensified reporting about the festival and aims to offer a central discussion forum for all.
In this workshop, Sean Dodson and Roger Rees will help you to contribute to this discussion and to find out more about the possibilities of networked media from the inside. During the Takeaway festival daily workshop sessions are offered to facilitate the creation of a lively festival blog.
