Chicago, Times, Plotter, Helvetica, DIN, Techno, Löhfelm, RR_02, etc.. are the 39 issues of the magazine founded in 2002 in Vienna. With 2 to 3 issues a year, the members of the team publish their magazine around their personal encounters and interests in arts, theory and publishing.
Each issue present around fifteen contributions, in both texts and images. Artists, writers, scientists and other specialists and practitioners are invited to contribute and intervene in a sober and efficient layout already acknowledged by the London Design Museum in its exhibition Best European Design 2005.
The focus of the editorial activity is organizing and assembling the contributions, including works and found footage by the editors, in order to create for each issue a strong and beguiling unity, amplified by the use of a different font for each issue. Each issue printed in black and white in an edition of 300 copies, is completed with a color centerfold poster by an internationally recognized artist (Kai Althoff, Elke Krystufek, Daniel Pflumm, Ayse Erkmen, Richard Hawkins, Amelie von Wulffen, Cameron Jamie, Renée Green, Jennifer West, Art & Language, etc...).
Apart of the publishing work, the team organizes for each issue a release party in a specific space, such as a panoramic bar, a wax museum, project spaces, other magazine's editorial spaces, etc... inviting artists to perform or exhibit.
Broadening its network, the magazine gets invited into art spaces to which the team respond contextually: Multiple author wallpainting for a magazine fair, teamshow at Flaca in London, curated groupshow in Circuit, Lausanne, artists-in-residence in Copenhagen, lectures in galleries and workshops in universities, etc.. The 2023 exhibition at Neuer Kunstverein Wien (NKW.network) the zine deploys its entanglement with publishing and performative practices.
Current editors: Christian Egger, Christian Kosmas Mayer, Yves Mettler, Magda Stützer-Tóthová, Alexander Wolff.
