48 Hour Magazine

7 May

Welcome to 48 Hour Magazine, a raucous experiment in using new tools to erase media’s old limits. As the name suggests, we’re going to write, photograph, illustrate, design, edit, and ship a magazine in two days.

Here’s how it works: Issue Zero begins May 7th. We’ll unveil a theme and you’ll have 24 hours to produce and submit your work. We’ll take the next 24 to snip, mash and gild it. The end results will be a shiny website and a beautiful glossy paper magazine, delivered right to your old-fashioned mailbox. We promise it will be insane. Better yet, it might even work.

Interesting?

Laura Volkerding’s Solomon’s Temple

The photos in this book are pretty low contrast, and I had to resist a natural urge to ramp it up. One of my classmates from the view camera course saw the KZSU workspaces and recommended Volkerding.

Speaking of KZSU, this is the time of year when a bunch of short shows go up in a few spaces, and I’ve put a selection of photos in the lobby of the Cummings art building on campus for this week. They’re coming down on Friday, so not a lot of time to hop on over, but what can say… if you’re nearby, find an excuse. Do you hear one of those annoying clearance sale TV ads in your head? (“FOR ONE WEEK ONLY…!!!”)
