OMG, it’s finally here! After three and a half months of digital editing on a broken MacBook screen, a tight budget and a handful of amazing creatives Oi! – ‘A Journal by Young Creatives’is finally here! The journal came from an obsessive compulsive tendency to collect critique and create publications, I became tired of reading the same old content, which seemed to lack a sense of consciousness for creatives.
With print publications dying a painfully slow death I realised it was necessary to create an in between; we’re always on our gadgets as we live in a digital realm; we coexist , communicate and relate with the help of the internet and technology that enables us to share information.
Main Editorial – ‘The City Will Expand’ visually illustrating the idea of Gentrification equalling Homogenisation minus Indigenous culture, featuring Andrea Phillips, curator and participator of Art Music and Politics Must Meet and Tex Royale, whose 2020 vision literally blows my mind!
