Arkzin

Started by Anti-War Campaign in 1991 (or 1993?). Editor-in-chief: Dejan Kršić. It was the first on-line publication in Croatia (designed by Blazenko Karesin Karo). The members of the editorial staff were, among others, Geert Lovink and Boris Buden. Arkzin, besides the political theory and practice and pop culture, regularly covered the subject of media culture and art. Igor Markovic has been the editor of the Cyber Theory column since 1996, presenting the translations of key texts of media theory. The magazine is not published at the moment. [1]

At first, "Arkzin" was a strictly political fanzine but after a while, editorial board widened the interest and included international members and topics. It gradually changed from the political fanzine and political fortnightly to a hybrid magazine in which politics, culture, theory and art met, crossed and overlapped in a way that Croatian media scene had not been used to. Its hybrid quality was especially manifested in the field of new media, which has been continually recorded since 1995. "Arkzin" recorded events on the international scene of new media by their extensive definition, which included the culture of DJ's, VJ's, electronic music created and distributed via computers, urban club culture etc. Promoted concept of tactical media.
