- ABOUT the carbon based mistake -
the carbon based mistake was created 03.30.75 by marc calvary and takes the form of zines & books & photography & writing & blasphemy & art & design. eternally residing in new york the carbon based mistake exhibitionistically displays perverse, tragic, and bizarre behavior while drinking from the poisoned well.
besides the main project, a series of books and zines under the umbrella name of the carbon based mistake, marc finds the time to do other projects by being annoyingly anti-social. current side projects include the Art Exchange Program, an annual zine contest awarding grant money and prizes in an attempt to encourage others to continue to make art, and a pin-up style adults-only photography and design project called cherrypepper.

the carbon based mistake thinks you should buy a scratch-off lottery ticket, the kind that gives you a million dollar a year payout. Then you should hang it in a frame on the wall of your home, unscratched. – If you have photographic proof you’ve done this in a show of solidarity for the DIY movement, you’ll be sent a free zine.
