H-O-T Histories Of Tomorrow
For the first issue of this magazine, we used only texts & images from the Internet, which we now combine with the timeless quality of print to demonstrate its radical power & boundless freedom. To make new ideas more transparent & of course to make it all a bit more readable.-)
We believe there are countless voices on the Word Wide Web that deserve to be heard. Also or precisely because they challenge our habits, call our certainties into question & shake our mental buildings. Because if we take a closer look, there is always more what unites us than what divides us.
And much that we can do new, different & perhaps a little better. Our first issue is entitled “Spaltung” (Division) and deals with the fronts between future & past, east & west, man & woman, laughter & wine. Between Digital & Analog we look for the simple similarities in the complex experiences.
