Oft times mistaken for a mere relic of the bygone print era, either sequestered to the realm of academic esoterica or relegated to the checkout aisles of suburban groceries as peddlers of tabloid gossip, the print magazine has without a doubt persisted through the 21st century’s digital overhaul to knead out a sizable space for itself within the new media age. Not quite as authorized or static as a hardback book, nor as casual or nebulous as a pamphlet, the postdigital periodical occupies a literary sweet spot conducive to the most compelling and multifarious meditations on of myriad cultural phenomena. While even the most venerable of ‘general interest mags’ are migrating to online platforms, the successful print publication excels when forgoing popular interest to delve deeply into the ever-evolving specifics of a singular niche. Subjects are limitless and run the gamut from Asian architecture and modern art to dandy fashion and interior design. As souvenir, the magazine embodies the energies of limited collector’s item, object d’art, and manifesto, all coming together to serve as the definitive memento of a specific cultural moment. Brimming with artistically elevated photo editorials, and interviews, conversations, and essays worthy of countless re-reads, one’s well-thumbed back-issue becomes a personal touchstone, a revealing coffee table accent, a tome of knowledge, and a tactile documentation of the owner’s psyche.
