À propos de l?auteur

Johnny Brewton, interviewee:


Johnny Brewton produces X-RAY, a publication which
must be seen and touched to be fully appreciated. It features different colored
papers, inserts, found photographs, color xeroxes and objects such as
matchbooks and Chinese fortunes--each issue is a hand-produced artwork, with no
two copies exactly alike.


Growing up in Ventura, California, Johnny got involved in
the Los Angeles punk rock scene at the age of fourteen. A decade ago, he helped
produce a zine, Sixty Miles North, and then published Kandykorn
Jackhammer
, all the while playing bass and drums in bands such as M.I.A.,
Missiles of October, the Screaming Things, Frankenstein and Big Biscuit
Express. He has a small collection of early punk records, sixties Mexican
punk/garage band recordings, and odd jazz, jug band and unclassifiable vinyl.
As a hobby he plays the ukulele and musical saw. In his wanderings, Johnny is
always on the alert for found materials to incorporate in his outstanding and
amazing X-RAY...
