The ''Shoreditch Twat'' fanzine was published and edited by club promoter Neil Boorman on behalf of the Shoreditch nightclub 333 between 1999 and 2004. == History == Starting life as a listings magazine for the club, it quickly grew to become an irreverent, satirical fanzine at the centre of the creative boom in East London. Producing 25,000 copies every six weeks with funding from BAT, Anheuser-Busch and Diesel, ''Shoreditch Twat'' attracted writers from ''The Guardian'', ''The Face'', ''Arena'', ''Loaded'', ''ID'' and Sleazenation, and illustrators James Jarvis, Bump, Will Sweeney and Elliot Thoburn. The ''Twat'' was art directed by Bump (John Morgan and Mike Watson), adding a surreal edge. Hoxton resident Lida Hujic wrote: In 2001, the term Shoreditch Twat became popular vernacular for an overdressed East London 'trendy' and the fanzine went on to produce an installation for the Barbican Gallery's UK culture exhibition 'Jam', which later toured to Japan. In 2002, Channel 4 Television and Talkback commissioned Shoreditch Twat to produce a one-off comedy show. This show went on to win a special mention at the 2003 Montreux Comedy Award. After four years and 31 issues, Shoreditch Twat ran into legal difficulties and was forced to close down. The publisher went on to edit Sleazenation Magazine. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shoreditch Twat」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
