Hypnozine: The Birth of Hypno

by Jason Squamata, Andrew Mc Kenzie (Illustrator), Mickey Collins (Editor)

HYPNOZINE: THE BIRTH OF HYPNO is an illustrated psychedelic science fiction novel that ebbs and flows between narrative and poetry written by Jason Squamata, with illustrations and design by Andrew Mc Kenzie. It’s a mythology from a weird future that shifts and shimmers on the other side of our chaos. A book-shaped game that kisses the eye and says “play."
It is the first disco scripture in a forthcoming trilogy, followed soon by 2: TRIPLIKATION OF THE SIMULATRIX and HYPNOZINE 3: HYPNOCRACY NOW! At last, a story that explains everything that ever happened to you. Hypno Kids, you are not who you are.

If Terence McKenna, William S. Burroughs, Andy Warhol, David Cronenberg, and a benzedrine-fueled tribe of pulp surrealists were to design a coffee table book, Hypnozine: The Birth of Hypno by Jason Squamata and Andrew Mc Kenzie would be that book. Hypnozine, so it declares of itself, “is a cathedral of twisted mirrors that unfolds like geometry on three frequencies of being: The HypnoGlyphic. The HypnoSonic. And the HypnoDelic” (15). You’ll need your wits about you as you visit the “Chapel Perilous,” the “Glitch-House,” and “Kakodelphia,” and you meet such characters as Krishna Kaligula, Adam Zer0, Frolik Happenstance, and Fanatika. This is a madhouse-book.
