A zine “zeen“ (short for magazine or fanzine) is a small, very informal, self-published creative work of text and/or images, usually produced by a single person or a very small group.
They are often handcrafted with a lo-fi aesthetic, photocopied on A4 paper and hand-folded for cheap circulation. One of the most popular zine formats is the ‘hot dog’ – formed by folding an A4 page.
