Looks like it might be an interesting issue. We'll see I haven't been über impressed with marie claire

recently. Mostly bad graphic design and not to much reflecting on the editors taste. The prestigious

magazine in my option feels inconsistent but either way I'm happy its still around and I know it will

turn around with something "iconic" or just ground breaking soon. If GQ can do it Marie Claire can def

do it.

Something New...

Interview Magazine introduces its ipad platform version View Here

Its no mystery that the editorial world needs a boost. But. is the ipad going to be an extension of the magazine era, or the demise.

I think that this device is an interesting idea and venture for those whom are obsessed with the new, and next best thing. If you take a step back though, where is the archive-ability? This one device seems to negate an entire industry, photography and editorial writing. Its so easy to just immediately be distracted when reading an article, unlike sitting and reading a physical magazine, by rating, tweeting, facebooking, etc that I feel this has such a limited scope on where the industry is.

Magazines are a venue, they are an extension and an exhibition space for art. Art being defined as writing, photography, graphic design, this cannot be the driving force to end all that with just one machine. Even if the consumer world buys into it, I believe and hope that physical editorials will continue to exist and exhibit simply because of these values. Can magazines be so shallow now to dare to think otherwise?

Hurry up! Fantasticman and deliver to us the Gentlewoman(magazine) you have been teasing us with for almost a year!

For one of the best things that came out of Holland since sliced bread its pretty hard to think that we have to wait until Feburary to view this new issue of LOVE...but I'm sure it will be well worth the wait. Good job Love for the teaser, its working.
