"You'd think, with the digital age and everything, that magazines would be dying out like the dinosaurs. But many of us are still here, busting our nuts to create a magazine that makes kids wanna spend ten bucks to own." Wise words, Woody from Sneaker Freaker. His comment aptly opens the follow up to 2007's We Love Magazines, the best thing to come out of Luxembourg since, well, time began.
Organised by Mike Koedinger from Nico magazine, Colophon is the world's only magazine symposium, where the niftiest mags from around the world descend upon the country to make merry. We Make Magazines: Inside the Independents springs from Luxembourg's fertile loins this year and asks the people behind these publications the questions we all want answers to. How did you get started? How do you make each issue? Which mags do you love?
Best of all is the juicy 50-page directory, listing all the mags that matter, who's behind them and how to get in touch. WON, Torpedo and Sneaker Freaker all represent, collectively ‘busting our nuts' as Woody so delicately puts it. Ewww. Stand back.
