We are the Unpersons! We are those who dare to stand up against the societal “norms.” We wish to speak freely about anything we want. No topic is sacred.
Our goal is to be the voice for those who dare not speak out. We aim to be the voice for those that think that they are alone in the world. Outcasts, pariahs, those who would be deemed ‘different’ are welcomed and encouraged to come here. We want to be an inspiration so that more will speak out about what they think and feel.
If you’ve read George Orwell’s 1984, you know what an Unperson is. If you haven’t, Unpersons are those who have been “erased” from all of society. All references in all forms of media have been removed and rewritten such that there is no trace of them. With that in mind, to quote one of my favorite movies, “It is only after you’ve lost everything that you are free to do anything.” On the Internet, we are faceless. We give ourselves our names. We are who we want to be. Unpersons is being created to give that presence a voice.
We are community oriented. Without a community, we’ll just be two dumb-asses talking to ourselves and publishing the conversation. That = lame sauce. We want to know what it is you’d like to hear. Tech, video games, pop culture, music, collectable trading card games (except PokÈmon, I hope Pikachu dies in a fire! Stupid electrified rat!), whatever tickles both yours and our fancies.
The format will be similar to a terrestrial radio morning show. Two jack-offs talking about random shit and trying to be entertaining and make you laugh while keeping you interested. We will have guest call-ins, contests and comedy bits as well. It will be recorded live. That means the original recording will be streamed live, and an archive available for download with-in 24-48 hours afterwards, sans music breaks.
For all that feel dejected, lost, ostracized, or down trodden; there are more of us than there are of ‘them’. There is strength in numbers.
You are not alone.
–Wess and Brian
