DESCRIPTION:Slingshot is an independent radical newspaper published in Berkeley since 
 1988. \n\nSpend an hour or all day Saturday and Sunday (10 - late) making 
 the layout, writing headlines, and creating art. Slingshot makes the paper 
 by hand, meaning that each page is physically pasted together by cutting up 
 the text, graphics and hand-drawn headlines and gluing them together with 
 sticky wax. This gives the paper the Slingshot look but also makes the 
 process more collective and accessible, since you don't have to know 
 particular computer programs or have other special skills to make a page. 
 In a world choking on standardization and computerization, making art by 
 hand is personally liberating and embodies the world Slingshot is creating. 
 \n\nDuring layout weekend, people take one or more pages to design or draw 
 one or more graphic or headline, which they do individually, but everyone 
 is hanging around together at the Long Haul while it is happening. We eat 
 together, take turns being DJ, socialize, tell stories, gossip and joke, 
 and people come and go throughout the weekend. Meetings to decide a few 
 topics may happen around mealtimes. Layout is kind of like a party with 
 pens, rulers and razor blades.\n
