Introducing Myself: Jason Z. Christie (High-C/Gortician)

From my deleted Wikipedia page (the cocksuckers!):

---

As the creator of nerdcorehiphop.org and the Rhyme Torrents nerdcore compilation CD project, High-C has served out more nerdcore MP3s and torrents than anyone, helping raise nerdcore hip-hop to new levels throughout the world.

High-C started making nerdy raps in 1994, and had his stuff online by 1996, creating an early scene with the likes of Old Scratch and Nerd X from mp3.com, various Canadian MCs and Usenetters.

In 2001, he formed Meter Versus Yard with London, Ontario producer DJ Manticore. Produced and recorded the first nerdcore hip-hop posse track, "Nerdcore For Life", which is also the longest, at sixteen minutes and thirteen MCs.

High-C brought some fifteen nerdcore MCs to Las Vegas to perform at the Divx booth at the Consumer Electronics Show, another first. High-C is also responsible for introducing many new acts to the world at large, releasing debut tracks from Nursehella, Metamystiks, Inc., ZeaLouS1 and others.

High-C is nerdcore hip-hop.

Here's me, blacked out in Vegas, on stage:

But, meh. We had a good run. Some people prefer my artier Canadian/Polish side-project Meter Versus Yard, with DJ Manticore: https://soundcloud.com/the-original-high-c/meter-versus-yard-the-axis-of-good

I was in a documentary about nerd rap: http://nerdcorerisingmovie.com/high-c.html

No, wait. That's the one I was deleted from...

Before that, I was mostly known for the extreme metal band Gortician, for whom I drummed and did promotion. A little too well. People started to think it was my band. We, erm, disbanded. But not before becoming one of the biggest unsigned underground metal acts of the early 2000s, once out-charting Cannibal Corpse and Six Feet Under on mp3.com in the summer of 2000 or so.

I also write for a side project (thrash) called Festering Sore. We supposedly have a new album coming out. Someday.

A nine-minute Evil Dead song? Why not...

I founded the now-defunct Death Metal Music Association online, way back in the days. 1995 or so, I suppose.

Let's see. Oh, yeah. Early Augmented Reality Researcher. Like, I was hounding my major tech friends about it in the early 90s. It's nice to see the industry getting there, finally. Terence McKenna was pleased to learn I was working on Electronic LSD, back in the days.

In the BeOS scene, I was known as Sandwich Boy, and ran BeDoper, a parody of the news site BeDope. I had a few notable silicon valley columns published back then.

Amiga/Commodore guy before that. I was writing games back in 1982 when I was 12.

Notorious Usenet troll. Endless stuff archived from back then. I trolled myself into getting swabbed for DNA by the FBI.

Oh, I ran the website Reptilian Watch, too. It was sort of half-hipster/half-serious, so depending on your mindset, it was enjoyable either way. David Icke linked me, as did Jeff Rense.

Now I mostly shitpost and make memes.

I did publish about ten books on Amazon, most of which are pretty great.

I'm an anarchist/small-L libertarian. I first worked for Ron Paul in 1988, and me and my friend Kenny of the LSU Libertarian Alliance, among others, got RP 4x the national vote, in our parish. (Louisiana has parishes, not counties.)

I was a fairly early crypto adopter: http://jasonzchristie.blogspot.com/2014/03/crypto-everywhere.html

Now I'm mostly an industrial pipefitter, father, husband. I may or may not work on a modern game design, of which I have a few. Jus' tryin' to stay out of jail, guv.

My life is pretty interesting and chaotic, so this post is, as well. I hope you find something of interest in here. A lot to unpack, as they say. I blog irregularly about crypto, primarily, but I'm also slowly publishing my novels on the blockchain.

I'm kinda funny, I guess. Here's a Hunter Thompson-inspired nerdcore audiobook: https://soundcloud.com/the-original-high-c/zombie-killa-part-1

And with that, I bid you adieu. I'm mostly on Twitter now, because I'm on my 8th 30-day ban from Facebook...
