In 1958 or 1959 (we’re not sure which), Eris, the Goddess of Confusion, sent an Emperor Penguin to a bowling alley in California. It appeared before Malaclypse the Younger and Lord Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst and inspired them to create the Discordian Society: a tribe of philosophers, theologians, magicians, scientists, artists, clowns, and similar maniacs.
The Et Cetera Discordia proudly celebrates 50th the anniversary of this prophetic vision. It is a collage of the funny, weird, and often profound writings and art created by numerous modern (and post-modern) Discordians. This book is an invitation to join them in exploring, celebrating, and remixing this strange and exciting century.
A bit of background: Triple Zero and I had this idea back in 2008. The original idea was to create a quick one-shot internet forum which gathered content for quick publication of a new Discordian text celebrating Discordia’s 50th anniversary. So we threw THE PARTY AT LIMBO PEAK, an intentionally shortlived Internet forum, where people could post anonymously and then later unmask themselves at the end of the party. The project got out of control and we took a million years to finish it. And the finished product is a beautiful 128 page paperback, the latest addition to Grand and Glory Old Discordjia!
The Etc. Discordia can be purchased in paperback or downloaded for free in PDF form here.
I love your work, I’ve seen some of on 23 apples. Downloaded the pdf of ECD… dude, it’s 120 megs! That’s more than any four other Discordian holy books. You should seriously put out a low-res version of it. Maybe 12 megs (and thats still on the high side).
Many fnords and 10 TONS OF FLAX!!

I downloaded this and peeked through. I like what I see. I should be buying a copy soon.

There’s some great stuff in there! But yeah, even for printing a professional book you don’t need more than 300 dpi for images. You might want to do it in lower resolution.
