wow! i'm so excited to have found this site! strange attractor's website is plastered with jellyfish, radiolarian-looking things, and other oddities. apparently, this strange attractor is a publisher of interesting oddities, as well as a uk resource for events and music.
here's a blurb about their third jounal:
Trip in a Vicorian time machine; wig out on psychoactive fauna; swing to the sounds of Martin Denny and the sex poetry of Arthur Koestler; ponder the occult roots of modern art and the literary kingdom of Redonda; gawp at the history of extra-uterine conception and recto-genesis; marvel at the house of dolls and the subterranean domain of Joseph Williamson; and more, more, more...
(fun blog, too: 'further:strange attractor & beyond') i think i'm a fan!
