Automata is a print magazine dedicated to covering the underground music scene - with emphasis on industrial, goth, synthpop, ambient, experimental and related genres - from a Christian perspective. This website is an extension of the magazine, with the goal of becoming the ultimate source of information about the scene.
What it is
This site is based on the wikipedia concept - an online encyclopedia where the content is provided by the individuals who use it. The magic of this format is that anybody who knows something can easily and instantly add their knowledge to the database. Whether it's writing a CD review, correcting a typo or entering an entire biography of a band, every contribution is invaluable to the completeness and accuracy of the site.
What it will be
As the database gets filled out, this site will eventually contain all the information you could possibly want about the scene: bios, discographies, reviews, interviews, etc. A depth of historical information will be archived here so that it never gets lost. As new information arises, someone will add it. The artists benefit too, as they can add updates about their most recent projects or happenings.
How to contribute
Before you start editing the pages on this site, you must first create an account. It's free and all you need to provide is a username and password. After that is set, please view the getting started page to learn about formatting, naming conventions, etc. Then, once you have a handle on that, start adding your special knowledge to the database!
