Academia Gothica

March 2006: Please note that the content of this site is seriously outdated, both informationally and technically. However, there's still some worthwhile stuff here, so it will remain up as the process of updating takes place. Updating will take a long time. Please be patient.

This is the Academia Gothica, where you can get a basic education about the goth subculture. You can follow the entire course of study (in other words, read everything in this section), or just take individual classes. No, I don't award degrees, but you can leave knowing you've learned more about this fascinating and marvelous subject. My qualifications? None, really, except my own enthusiasm for being part of this subculture, and a tendency to yap at great length about anything I'm enthusiastic about.
