First of all, I love magazines. Second of all, I'm an ATX -> LA transplant trying to make it through the first year scaries.
Currently loving Dreamworldgirl Zine!! They've rly grown in popularity in the last few months which is crazy considering they only just put their second issue.
I adore music zines. Always loved them. I don’t mean full-on glossy magazines, though I love those, too. I mean the handmade, typewritten, toner-smeared kind made out of printer paper and staples and a burning desire to participate in a tradition of creative writing, interviewing, art-making, and whatever other form of creativity one feels like stuffing into its pages. At the moment, I’m obsessed with a few: Hallogallo, which is run out of Chicago by Kai Slater (of the bands Lifeguard and Sharp Pins) which just published its 10th issue featuring an interview with Stereolab’s Laetitia Sadier; Love Injection, a long-running club culture zine by NYC’s Barbie Bertisch and Paul Raffaele; and Shadow Wolf, the handiwork of Holland-based electronic artist Legowelt.
Such a great way to share work and collaborate with people you wouldn't typically encounter. They can be whatever format you want, and I love that. I'm not in NYC, but if you decide to cast a wider net, I'm in. I've been mostly sharing via a newsletter lately, but I linked to a self-published magazine I made a while back.
if you like trinkets and collecting things, go check out jelli !!!!
Let’s just say, I’m very excited for issue two🫶🤓 the people who work on this magazine are so hardworking and kind. They have such a great vision. You can buy digital copies of issue one, but physical copies of the second issue are coming out soon !!
Bought their book over a year ago but finally flipping through it. Rarely have I found a style that I would actually wear every day. Needless to say that I'm obsessed. Currently looking for a resource to ID literally everything they wear. Someone HMU if they find one O_O
(click the link ^ if so) I have a galaxy brain idea to celebrate our new Partiful event alternative (Palantir 🤮) that drops in 2 weeks. We're attempting to coordinate PI.FYI meet-ups all over the world (in over 50 cities) on the same weekend in September. It'll be a really special moment to come together and reinforce that this site is all about making new homies, discovering new things, and finding community. There are 150 cities across the globe that have at least 50 users here, so there's a high chance that there are lovely PI.FYI people near you. Fill out the form attached here if you're interested in helping with your city/town/area.
