YOU CAN SURF LATER

It's fairly unlikely you'd have made it here without ever having heard of Jason's previous incarnation. So here you go, talk away...

YOU CAN SURF LATER

Post by ivan41 »

Hi folks,
I'm new to the forum.
I'm a swiss graphic designer and some of you might know stuffs I did, as I worked a few times with Sonic Boom (incl. Spectrum's War Sucks & GPS Spectrum/Cheval Sombre artworks).

I just released a book: YOU CAN SURF LATER The hieroglyphs of the confused. It's a non exhaustive repertoire of engravings done on GI’s zippos during the Vietnam war era. Sonic Boom wrote a text for it.

Thought some of you might be interested...
In case you are, the book can be ordered here:
http://www.side-issues.net/
It's a tiny first edition of 150 ex

Thanks for reading!

I see that 20 Swiss Franc equals 22.64 US Dollar

Wasn't sure what CHF was at first. :)

Haha, yeah, exact meaning of CHF is Confoederatio Helvetica Francs (as Confoederatio Helvetica = Switzerland)
Confederation became federalism but they kept the word. USA is based on the exact same principle, they did it afterwards and if I am not wrong, Switzerland was the only confederated system at that time.
Swiss flag could have 26 stars on it :)
Anyway, 20 CHF equals 22.64 USD
