Mag Nation
Gone are the days of skulking sheepishly in the back corner of a newsagency when you want to read for free. Mag Nation respects your right to loiter. In fact, they encourage it with an unlimited reading time policy, comfy chairs and free wireless.
They have a very healthy understanding of how people operate, you see, and concede that magazines are perhaps not an absolute necessity of life.
We Make Magazines: Inside The Independents
"You'd think, with the digital age and everything, that magazines would be dying out like the dinosaurs. But many of us are still here, busting our nuts to create a magazine that makes kids wanna spend ten bucks to own." Wise words, Woody from Sneaker Freaker. His comment aptly opens the follow up to 2007's We Love Magazines, the best thing to come out of Luxembourg since, well, time began.
The Bookshop
Gay bookshops used to be a staple of every gay ghetto. They helped build community, foster a common gay 'identity' and were rallying point for politically-minded locals.
Nowadays, the idea's passé. Most gay dudes are more interested in getting high and getting off than getting equality. And our hard fought 'gay' identity (Madonna, WILL & GRACE, Abercrombie & Fitch) is pretty damn revolting.
Visionaire in the Basement
A few months back, VISIONAIRE packaged up 50 issues and sold them for US$150,000. Unless you are some Trump-like character, there is no way you will ever afford one, let alone 50, of these ridiculously beautiful publications (which have come as light boxes, toys and vinyl sound under the watchful eye of Testino, Kawakubo and Jonze).
Ooga Booga Store
What one place can you score: mix tapes made by Calvin Johnson, furry dolls by Mike Kelley, claymation DVDs by Ian Svenonius, limited edition Maui and Sons reissues, and copies of Werner Herzog's travel diary?
If you said heaven, you're right! But if you can't wait that long - where on earth are you gonna find all these delights? That's Ooga Booga in LA's Chinatown.
Girls Like Us Issue 7
How far does your lesbigay folk memory stretch back? Could you identify six types of lesbian hairstyle?
Direct out of Amsterdam since 2005, the founding editors of GIRLS LIKE US have created a wonderful contemporary - er - rag that doesn't assume the existence of a single and complete lesbian community, but at the same time unites women who love women through distinct and sophisticated design and editorially impartial content.
