ABOUT:

Milan-based art publication This Is a Magazine is revolutionizing online publishing by leaps and bounds. With “synteractivity” as the unifying conceptual frame, This Is a Magazine blurs the divide between spectator, reader, and user-experience by initiating productions that only the spectator can complete with fully involved interaction and synthesis.

Having recently branched out from Flash-interactive, folio-style issues to experiment with PowerPoint, its latest issues also includes over an hour of mesmerizing QuickTime video "peep shows," and long-standing collaborations with Italian contemporary artist Antonio Riello and others, rarely are experimentation and quality so well matched. Their recent book Compendium #5 “Who I think I am”, has over 200 pages of new works, cut, sliced, diced, scored, folded and generally messed with stitch-bound hard-cover featuring DIY projects from:

Alberto Valgimigli - Alex Dragulescu - Andy Simionato - Angelo Plessas - Antonio Riello - Are You Generic - Brody Condon - Christian Neuman - David Shrigley - E*Rock - Guthrie Lonergan - Harry Malt - Hidetoshi Yamada - Jason Salavon - Jennifer Dalton - Jim Punk - Joanna Beaumont - John Rogers - Jon Burgerman - Junichi Tsuneoka - Karen ann Donnachie - Kevin Christy - Klaus Schmidt - Matt Smear - Mehdi Hercberg - MTAA - Nadin Ospina - Porous Walker - Rafaël Rozendaal - Raffaele Marmo - Renè Schmidt - Ries Straver - Sergei Sviatchenko - The Jonkers - the Reader - Tyra Von Zweigbergk - Will Ainley - Youshi Li
