Chris Yorke’s self-styled confessional rampage zine Gypsy Times illuminates what could be at stake in world where politics is culture and culture is politics. In cryptic, gripping, fragments of prose and snapshot, he shows us what happens when you reach the ultimate fusion of lifestyle culture. Among other stories told: Attempts to open his apartment as a commune, his not guilty plea to charges of committing an indecent act under the guise of performance art, and his fissure with comic king Marc Bell. This is life as we now know it: reinvented and invented again, with or without rules depending on what side of the TV you wake up on. (HN)
