Made of ounces, teaspoons and dashes, garnishes, syrups and infusions, balancing acidity, bitterness, sweetness and spice, cocktails have their own vocabulary and grammar. Intoxicating us into liquid mythologies, letting our minds wander in uncharted bliss, these synthesized drinks quickly mix with our own neurochemicals to transmit new recipes, spells, and dreams. This issue explores these quixotic mixologies, vigorously shaking cocktails of spirits and flavor into elixirs of dreams, to serve them across its pages, perfectly chilled.
featuring Mónica Belevan, Roland Caracostea, Savinien Caracostea, Annette Condello, Debora Domass, Kirby Fowle, Sam Knegt, Erin Levi, Charlie Masson, Sigrid Pauen, Rodica Prato, Matteo Prodani, Yehuda Safran, Heber Sanchez, Eva Wales, John Zissovici.

A train is speeding through the night. As in a convoluted dream, there is no getting off before the destination is reached. With the speed and linearity of the perfect action film, the journey of a drowsy passenger unwittingly becomes one connecting a nostalgic past to an utopian future. From the Orient Express to Hyperloop, it is easy to interpret the unstoppable momentum of trains as a metaphor for technological advancement.
featuring Niclas Audisio, Mónica Belevan, Roland Caracostea, Savinien Caracostea, Annette Condello, Kirby Fowle, Pascal Frey, Nicholas Gervasi, Kseniia Leonovich, Charlie Masson, Flavia Masson, Emma McCormick-Goodhardt, Magdalena Neuhauser, Sigrid Pauen, Rodica Prato, Yehuda Safran, Lou Svahn, Allen S. Weiss.

Upon entering your hotel room, you usually have more than your luggage to unpack. Since the revolving doors which led into the lobby, getting dispatched from the reception desk through elevators and corridors in search of a number — your number — you have been assimilating a new environment, both oddly familiar yet strangely mysterious. Sounds of vacuum cleaners, conversations muffled through anonymous doors, patterns and mirrors, all populating these spaces and surfaces enough to blend familiarity into the unknown. By the time you get to your door, each threshold has taken you deeper into an altered state of comfort and detachment.
featuring Mónica Belevan, Roland Caracostea, Savinien Caracostea, Annette Condello, Fulvio Ferrari, Kirby Fowle, Nicholas Gervasi, Kemper Hyers, Flavia Masson, Phillip Nelson, Rodica Prato, Yehuda Safran, Katie Vitale.

Walking into a department store today almost feels nostalgic, as if visiting confused and disheveled remnants of spaces whose golden age is long past, vessels for dreams of a bygone era. Taking its place, online shopping is further removing the dream from objects and experiences, abstracting them as interfaces and cutouts devoid of context, shadow or materiality. Furthermore, the permeance of advertising and race for global marketshare, profitability per square foot, and followers on social media has made the shopping experience loud, homogeneous and meaningless.
featuring Niclas Audisio, Emilie Baltz, Mónica Belevan & Alonso Toledo, Roland Caracostea, Savinien Caracostea, Arianna Conca, Kirby Fowle, Liana Luci, Fajan Lange, Van Dyk Lewis, Franz Mmeerls, Phillip Nelson, Rodica Prato, Yehuda Safran, Heber Sanchez, Olivier Schwartz, Allen S. Weiss, John Zissovici.

This twentieth anniversary issue continues the dream of a young boy who, impatient of waiting for monthly periodicals to follow the adventures of his favorite comic book hero, decided to create his own publication to send to his loyal subscribers and contributing friends. Since those first four issues, much has changed, but the dream has somehow remained the same.
