How does one define
Discordian writings? Discordians, by their nature, often defy
definition, both as individuals and as a group. Written works both
by and about Discordians are no different. The vast majority of
things written by Discordians are ephemeral, electronic. Web pages,
e-mails, usenet postings. Somehow that seems very fitting. The web
is a great place to find things written by Discordians. Obviously
you know this already, or you're probably not reading this. Usenet
is another good source of all things Discordian. Much more conversational
and spontaneous than the web, alt.discordia
is a font of both the most inspired and inane things said by Discordians
over the past decade.
Aside from the Internet,
however, it can be hard to find anything. There's the Principia
Discordia, of course. And thanks to online bookstores, it's a lot
easier to find these days. Robert Anton Wilson's another source
of Discordian and Discordian-like books. Quite a few people were
first introduced to Discordians through reading the Illuminatus!
Trilogy. I've tried to collect a few of the things ABMTAC members
have written, along with books and other writings I think you'll
like.
