The Lainzine is a free, not-for-profit zine created (largely) by / for fans of the late-90s anime Serial Experiments Lain and the many relevant communities, websites, and dusty art-projects it has inspired over the last decades. topics covered include "digital life", the intersection of art and computers, cyberpunk themes, programming and opsec, pseudo-religious technobabble, and whatever else people feel like sharing, all presented in a lain-inspired a e s t h e t i q u e format.
If any of the topics above seem interesting to you, have a look at the archive. "production quality" varies a bit, as it's taken a while to figure out how best to present things and make them all pretty, but there's still interesting stuff to read no matter which you pick up.
And, if you like what you see there and have something you want to share as well, please don't hesitate to read the submission guidelines and do so! as a free community project, the lainzine is what people make of it, with those people being anyone at all who feels some sort of affiliation with lain and the many things the name has come to mean. so don't feel like your work or ideas don't belong just because they differ a bit from what's been in past zines. we're all connected, after all.
A wiki and fandom news source about the series Serial Experiments Lain.
Many years ago, there was a Serial Experiments Lain game for the PSX that was released in Japan only. Over the years fans have pulled it apart, translated it into several languages, and turned it into a web game so you don't need a hacked Playstation and copies of the disks. It's a visual novel that basically retells the story of Lain.
