In 2015, I started an ethnographic research with the objective of mapping and attending feminist collectives that were politically active through self-publications (zines). Between the years 2015-2018 we have archived 101 zines from the Center- South regions of Brazil; we have checked envelopes in the exchange of letters, and we also have circulated through punk-feminist events and particularly open skies zine fairs. Rio de Janeiro city s vertigo, our research locus, affected us as the country underwent a series of toppling in the macro-structures of power. In this scenario, the zinesters formed alliances regarding gestures of resistances to the daily violence of the metropolis and elaborated political relations called velcro-alliance (Gloria Anzaldúa) being the zines their main medium and practice of the self (Michel Foucault). In our research field, we could reflect on contemporary zine-feminist writing practices; the gestures of retaliation to the limit violations (inside and outside the counter-cultural spaces); and with Judith Butler we were able to see the uprisings as the power of these feminist collectives. In addition, we have immersed in the Dadaist Hannah Höch s work so we could analyze the zines of our scope. The goal of this thesis was to problematize the notions of community, friendship and consecrated wisdom; besides the particular experiences that have occurred in the research within what we call the zine-feminist field. We have had the opportunity to observe the dynamics, political affectations and relationships among the participants of this network; we have approached ourselves to the economy of trade and, using the speeches of non-heterosexual zinesters, we have told a story with impulses of fury and longing (in Brazilian Portuguese, the feeling of missing someone).
