On the Lower Frequencies is at once a manual, memoir, and history of creative resistance in a world awash with war and poverty. An icon on the 1990s zine scene, Iggy Scam traces not only the evolution of cities, but of his own thinking, from his early focus on more outr\u008e forms of resistance through more contemplative times as he becomes preoccupied with the need for a more affirmative vision of the future. In one of the bookÕs key pieces, Scam celebrates the history and passing of HuntÕs Donuts in San FranciscoÕs Mission District. On one level an epitaph for a beloved hangout and on another a metaphor for the effects of gentrification, itÕs the untold history of an entire neighborhood in a single retail establishment. Whether handing out fake Starbucks coupons or dreaming of a future with more public art and punk holidays, Scam gives the reader inspiration for living defiantly.
