EDITOR’S PICKS OF THE WEEK
We’re back! Braving a live experience with real humans!
ZAMM returns for 2022 with Zeds, Drugs & Rock ‘n Roll...
Greeting fellow Zeds and welcome to
ZAMM 2022.
So the apocalypse is over right?
RIGHT? Wrong. It never goes away.
But fret not, as ever the good people
at ZOMBIFIED MEDIA have you
covered.
In these past few extra-apocalyptic
years ZOMBIFIED MEDIA has
worked hard to develop it’s flagship
streaming service, CHANNEL ZED.
And while CHANNEL ZED carries
on streaming through the virtual world,
it’s a pleasure to be back in person, taking on and
celebrating the apocalypse with some live humans,
and sharing our passion for science and art, under
the influence of live music and who knows what
else.
This year’s theme is ZEDS, DRUGS & ROCK ‘N
ROLL. We’re talking about psychedelics, addiction,
drugs in medicine, entrainment, improvisation,
counter-culture, and the role of festivals,
gatherings and collective experiences of the arts
in helping us deal with an increasingly apocalyptic
present and uncertain future.
So, let me give you a little sampler of some of
the delicious brains we’ve curated for this year’s
session, and on which days you can sample them:
THURSDAY brings apocalyptic arts, crafts, and
cults; not to mention irresistible Reggae beats
curated by ZOMBIFIED MEDIA’s own Mzilikazi
Koné. And for those of you joining us in-studio,
there is the chance to take part in our interactive
workshop on The Natural History of Festivals led by
the inimitable Tamas David-Barrett.
FRIDAY begins with comedian Shane Mauss and
monasticism expert Danièle Cybulskie debating
the merits of partying in the apocalypse. Then
the zombie bluegrass party truly begins with Julie
Sullivan Brace, founder of Pickin’ in the Pines
Bluegrass Festival, chatting bluegrass history and
3
future with other delicious brains including
musicians, scientists and those strange
creatures that seem to be becoming
increasingly common: hybrid scientist-
musicians.
SATURDAY boasts a deep dive into
music, drugs and other methods of
zombification. The ultra-brainy Ed
Hagen offers up his neural tissues for our
consumption, explaining how jamming
might be the ultimate coalitional
signal (and don’t miss Ed on Sunday’s
episode of Dr. Zed talking about how self-
medication can be an anti-zombification strategy!).
In the afternoon we’ll hear from Mathew Sandoval
about death, culture and how we use festivals to
deal with apocalypses large and small; and it’s
quite likely we’ll all get consumed by the Dia de Los
Muertos festival happening in conjunction with
ZAMM 2022.
SUNDAY wraps with Jessica Phillips-Silver and
Dante’ Pope streaming in an interactive go-
go rhythm entrainment session based on the
indiginous music of Washington DC. We’ll end with
a chat about the future with ridiculously smart and
surprisingly humble thought-leaders from ASU and
beyond. Is the future bright or are we in for more
apocalyptic times to come? Tune in to find out!
Throughout we’ll be joined by a cadre of crazy-
smart correspondents, deliciously brainy
discussants, musical guest Baba Brinkman rapping
it up, and perhaps the occasional ravenous
zombie interrupting our stream. As we’ve all
come to realize, dealing with the unexpected
and unpredictable is all part of trying to produce
amazing TV in the apocalypse.
So welcome again to ZAMM 2022. Join me in
partying like it’s the end of the world.

CULT HEROES?
There have been plenty of intriguing developments in the run up
to ZAMM 2022, but something ‘cultish’ has caught Z-TV’s eye...

In these troubled apocalyptic times, there’s ZAMM 2022 organizer Athena Aktipis,
nothing more comforting than abdicating herself no stranger to the Cult Leader game,
all personal responsibility and joining a said this of the two leadership hopefulls:

 INTERVIEW
BRAINSTORMING
with CHANNEL ZED Director Jason Davids Scott
ZOMBIFIED MEDIA sat down with CHANNEL ZED director,
Jason Davids Scott to pick their brain about this exciting ZAMM
2022 week and to find out more about their brand of Drugs and
Rock and roll…
Z-TV: Jason, you’re a
busy apocalypse media
professional, we won’t
take up too much of your
precious time.
JDS: In the
apocalypse, studying
and analyzing media
also means being part
of the media, so I’m
happy to be here.
Z-TV: So after years of
producing CHANNEL ZED
as a streaming service, you
are moving into a live studio. How
does it feel to be bringing the virtual
to life?
JDS: It just shows how important it is to
innovate with whatever it is you can find,
whatever resources you have. CHANNEL
ZED was forged in that moment where
no one could go outside, no one could
have direct contact with each other. Even
to this day, many of those who are part
of this crucial media platform haven’t
actually met each other in person. You
may be five feet tall or seven feet tall, I
don’t know. So any opportunity to put
people in the same space again, safely
and thoughtfully, especially at minimal
expense, is a crucial path forward.
Z-TV: This years theme is Zeds, Drugs and
Rock and Roll. We know you are one of
the chief Zeds, but what are your drugs of
choice?
14
JDS: “Drugs” has become a
loaded term, and the first
thing we need to do is
to decenter the power
and oppression that
word represents.
Humans are wired to
change and influence
their senses and
perception of the
world through the
ingestion, injection,
and incorporation of
organic substances: food,
poultices, medicines, ways
to expand consciousness and
community. I think if something is
essentially natural or synthesized from
natural sources, and it is used appropriately,
then its up to each person to decide how
those experiences and interactions happen.
I don’t want to minimize the risk of abuse or
the dangers in taking on certain experiences,
but the same can be said for many things
in life: relationships are a risk, travel is a
risk, engaging in social discourse or political
action is a risk, diet and exercise are risks,
resistance or compliance to power is a risk.
Z-TV: Which artists or songs helped get you
through this ongoing apocalyptic moment?
JDS: I’ve been very comforted by YouTube
reaction channels of people discovering the
music that I really love for the first time: I
feel like I’m seeing that music anew. That’s
not very expansive of me, but it means a ton
that people are so blown away by Simon and
Garfunkel or Steely Dan, or the Bee Gees. I’ve
probably watched 50 reactions to “Too Much
Heaven” by the Bee Gees, because no one
can believe white male voices can produce
those amazing sounds. Because of my
neurodiversity, I form intense connections
between emotions and the physical sensation
of harmonies and musical arrangements,
they imprint on my memory much deeper
than most human interactions. Suffice it
to say, music is always a comfort, I just got
some new perspective as other people start
sharing those first time experiences.
Z-TV: Which events this week are you most
excited about?
JDS: The bluegrass events, obviously, for
reasons just stated: the high lonesome
sound is also something that soothes my
soul. But my focus is going to be making
sure the events of the weekend are recorded
and transmitted appropriately and that the
mission of CHANNEL ZED reaches the
community and the world.
Z-TV: You’re a dog lover Jason. Any tips
for helping our furry friends through the
apocalypse?
JDS: To be clear, I love cats too (I have three
cats and two dogs). Animal companions
carry the oblivion and ignorance of most
of the living creatures on this planet.
While we protect them from what they
can’t understand like disease and natural
disaster, we can learn a lot from them about
relying on our natural senses, instincts, and
desire to bond with each other in comfort,
without judgment. If you believe in absolute,
unconditional love, connect with an animal.
Z-TV: Thanks Jason and good luck out there.
