Infiltration

http://www.infiltration.org

Infiltration is an (e)zine about going places you're not supposed to go. 
Infiltration offers a mix of the practice and theory of urban exploration
in areas which have not been designed for public usage. The feature
articles from each issue are now online at the above addres, but to get
the whole picture you'll have to send for the paper version. 

Infiltration is the art of urban exploration, a sort of interior tourism
which allows the curious-minded to see all sorts of things which they're
not supposed to see. No, it's nothing so exciting and illegal as nuclear
missile silos; it's things like forgotten subbasements, engine rooms, high
rooftops, abandoned mineshafts, secret tunnels, abandoned factories and
other places not designed for public usage.

There are many good reasons why infiltration is a wonderful hobby. Tourism
of non-designated areas is far more interesting and revealing than
sticking to the proper public areas. It's also a lot of fun; sometimes
it's absolutely exhilirating. And afterwards, you feel some of the same
pride of accomplishment that explorers and mountain-climbers feel. 

Most of the content of this site is limited to experiences in Toronto,
Ontario, Canada. I hope very strongly that this will change in the future;
I'm desparate for letters, pictures and articles from other infiltrators,
especially in other cities. I also intend to include interviews with
superstars of sneakiness, as well as members of the enemy camp, security
guards. 

This website is themed after the video game Elevator Action, which has
always been a major inspiration to me. You'll probably want to explore the
site pretty thoroughly yourself and see if you can find its various secret
bits. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
