This is more of arto-techno-Mac-o interest than Churchly interest.
http://www.creativemac.com has several short psuedotechnical articles by me, several of my 3D computer graphics "tabletop miniature" scenes (plus one by Nenslo that they thought I did), and an interview about the inner secrets of computer graphics in The Church of the SubGenius. (If I got any factual things wrong, we can change it.) It describes the wonders of alt.binaries.slack and praises several of the most prolific contributors.
My technical articles are the ones that I posted to a.b.s. over the years where I describe the making of these pictures as if they were actually done with physical puppet models, 3500k flood lights, noisy 35mm movie cameras, etc.
The online mag "Creative Mac" would be of interest to graphics designers and artists, especially from a technical standpoint, although the focus is on Macintosh based software.
It is ironic that this mag chose to interview me -- I've only been making computer pictures for about 4 years, and you can tell from the interview that I'm a total amateur, completely wowwed by what are basically children's art programs (Bryce and Poser). But this computery shit sure is nutty that way. I was just marvelling with Doctor Legume this morning about how 3 years ago, the only use he had for computers was in target practice, and now he's a "name" Poser expert, paid as a technical consultant for an artistical 3D computer pornography-assist company. Pope Sternodox, who as I write this is across the room SNORING ON THE COUCH, likewise went from zero to 60 and became a highly paid graphics designer (print, ads and especially jewelry) even while wearing that insane Snuffy Smith chin beard, the word "FRAPPY" tattooed out on his arm in BobCo Symbol Font, and that huge gross snot-covered gold nose ring a la Elmer, the bull on the Elmer's Glue bottles.
