Our community is a creative community and we like to share the product of our research, reflection, and handiwork.

	Creativity ought to be shared and enjoyed – we’ve started a project to make some of our home-made graphics available in other forms: shirts, buttons etc. If there’s a graphic you’ve seen here on the site and would like to see it as a shirt, mug, button, or card design suggest it!

	We like supporting other indie artists and scholars. Our friend Huw over at Sarx is pretty creative, we like his designs and think you will too. You can view Huw’s stall Doxos Swag by clicking here.
	The Paragon of Virginity is Alexis’ MA thesis. Focussing on the writings of Origen and Athanasius, the essay explores the historical process that lead to Mary becoming the image of female asceticism by the close of the fourth century. Along the way the text highlights key features of pagan philosophy that lay behind asceticism, as well as early trends in monasticism. Available both in print £5.98 and as a download £3.56
	Every community has a set of rules – ours is no different. This is the second edition of our canons and we’re very proud of them. They are the product of over 10 years of discussion, and research, as well as our collective real life experience of living in an OC/IC context. The text is available both in print £6.oo and as a download £3.00

	Compiled by Bishop Alistair Bate in Scotland, this collection bishop’s own narratives includes a number of those familiar to regulars here at GCHQ: John Plummer, Tim Cravens, and our own Alexis Tancibok. These personal histories and the outlook on the indie movement each presents are as varied as the make-up of the movement itself. You can order your copy ($16.95) from Amazon by clicking here.
