Augmenalia

Augmenalia is my personal, hand-made, analog zine.

Common themes include art, history, experimentation, and community.

Issues #01 and #02 of Ethan Hulbert's personal zine Augmenalia

No AI, no desktop publishing software, nothing much digital at all.

Just me, a pair of scissors, double-sided tape, art supplies, and a photocopier.

It’s a personal zine, frequently discussing weird & classic art, history (especially in exploration and etymology), personal development and growth, and lots of experimentation. There are riddles in every issue and no one has gotten more than 4/5 right so far. It’s only getting better and more personal as it goes on.

Issue #03

The third issue of Augmenlia was heavily delayed, and then delayed further by technical issues. Although it’s dated August 2025, it collects works dating back through the summer of 2024, and it wasn’t actually able to be released until December of 2025.

The front cover of the Augmenalia #03 zine by Ethan J. Hulbert. The zine is half of a piece of paper large, 36 pages, fully analog. The front cover is a collage of the interior marbling patterns of antique books, rich hues of red and gold and blue and brown.The first print run (in December ’25) was of 25 copies. There will be a second print run, likely between 15-25 more copies.

This one was printed in FULL COLOR on every page – a rarity, and not something that will likely happen again.

 

Issue #02

The second issue of Augmenalia was published at the end of April 2024, with a first print run of 41 copies–double the printings of the first issue! After those were depleted, I made a second print run of 15 more issues, for 56 copies in total!

The first edition of Issue #02 is all claimed, but I have a few more of the second print run available.

Issue #01

Augmenalia Zine Issue #01 - Jan 2024 - 21 copies total

Augmenalia Issue #01 was published January 17th, 2024, in a limited run of 21 issues. All 21 are now spoken for. I will not be printing more of Issue #01. Gotta keep some things a little more mysterious, y’know?
