Zinio Giveaway


A few weeks ago I discovered Zinio, a digital newsstand with magazines from all around the world. If you read my blog regularly, you must have noticed that I'm a huge print magazines fan but I have to admit that I also read some digital publications, especially those that are hard to find.

When I came across Zinio while using my iPad I found it amazing, mainly because of the huge amount of magazines they offer! 

The prices of the subscriptions are also another reason to start using Zinio. I found them cheaper than other similar platforms and they also have lots of offers. Right now for example, they're offering 2 x 1 year subscriptions for the price of one on selected magazines.

I've been approached by Zinio to run a giveaway on my blog. They've offered me 10 magazine subscriptions, I'm keeping one of them (it's gonna be hard to decide with so many options) so I still have 9 to give away between everyone who leaves a comment below with their name and email address!

The winners will be announced soon here on my blog!

Sunday Zine Review #67: Deutsche Qualität by Maycec


Maycec (Cécile Mayot) is a French graphic designer who is also interested in zines. Cécile messaged me a couple of weeks ago to show me Deutsche Qualität, a photography zine showcasing images taken by Céline Marioni and Cécile.

If you follow my blog, you might have read that I spent some days in Berlin last November. Deutsche Qualität collects little moments from this city and after flipping through its pages, it really made me want to book a couple of days off from work and visit Berlin again.

In Deutsch Qualität, Céline and Cécile snap the still life of Berlin, creating a collection of the images that represent the diversity of this city. 

If you're interested in knowing a little more about the zine, you can do it on Maycec's website.

Sunday Zine Review #66: Mr. Spoqui #39


Mr. Spoqui can be now considered a regular here on the Sunday Zine Review. It's always great when the Baeza siblings send me the latest issue of their zine because it really puts me in a good mood.

For those of you who are new to the Sunday Zine Review, have a look a the previous reviews and an interview with one of Mr. Spoqui's creators here.

Mr. Spoqui is one of the zines I like to keep in my bag and carry with me everywhere. Even if it's a zine you could finish reading in probably less than 30min, I always like to take it with me and enjoy it throughout a week. I read one of the short comics on the bus to work or one of the texts just before going to bed - I believe that's the way Mr. Spoqui should be enjoyed!

Issue #39 is dedicated to magic and, as always, the zine is packed with great photographs, comics and text around the topic. Each of the Baeza siblings and some new contributors have collaborated to create a very special issue where some of the best magic secrets are revealed!

If you're interested in this issue, make sure you visit Mr. Spoqui website to find out more about it and get yourself a copy to start building your Mr. Spoqui collection!!

Sunday Zine Review #65: No Thoughts #09

 

Michael J DeMeo and Alyssa Noches' zine, No Thoughts, is a regular on the Sunday Zine Review. This photography zine has become a cult publication known for the rawness and aesthetics of the portraits featured in it and now it is on its 9th edition with an issue dedicated to music.

For most of us, music plays an important role in our lives and Michael and Alyssa have decided to celebrate this fact collecting a selection of music portraits by 32 emerging and established photographers.

Some highlights from this issue include Gavin Thomas' cover shot of Jim Jones, Brad Elterman's archive photos of Joey Ramone and Phil Spector, Olivia Locher's portrait of Matthew Dear, ASAP Rocky shot by Evan Tetreault and Dania Shihab's interpretation of Withney Houston.

No Thoughts 09 is only $7 and based on the success of the previous issues this one will also sell out fast! If you want to find more information and a full list of photographers on  No Thoughts website

Sunday Zine Review #64: Fused Minds

 

It's always good to discover the work of new publishers from all around the world, so when the guys from Zimmer17 messaged me and asked if I wanted to review one of their latest publications, I agreed of course!

Zimmer17 is a collective of photographers based in Germany. On their website, you can find their individual portfolios as well as collaborative works like Fused Minds. 

Fused Minds collects the work of the 6 members of the collective: Christian Conrad, Daniel Harders, Marina Jerkovic, Lars Kiss, Susann Probst and Yannic Schon. Still life and portraits are mixed to provide an insight into these photographer's work.

Fused Minds is a special edition of only 180 copies and I must say the printing and paper quality are excellent so wouldn't be surprise if they sell out soon! If you want to find more information about the collective and this publication, you can do it here.
