New post from @meansmagazine.bsky.social meansmag.substack.com/p/pushing-th...
featuring @woodfordhalse.bsky.social @bofbriz.bsky.social @horrordwarf.bsky.social and more...
On a silver laptop on a wooden surface and to the left of a black DIN A6 note-book the open pages of the A5 issue showing a black and white photo of two empty benches looking out over a lake or an ocean with the shadow of what could be a person in between them right on the zine's joint, all photographed from behind on what seems to be the far end of a boardwalk, secured by proper fencing in front and all the way back, angling off by ninety degrees on the left of the picture. There, a lamp by the edge with in the distance a lonesome island.
Finally found the new #DIY @meansmagazine.bsky.social with this wonderful #photo printed inside in my post box today and I'm now looking forward to what else it might hold. Seems like it will be much fun, telling from a first skim. #zine #artsky
Yeah, me too.
So what was your first reaction MEANS Magazine #3 HOPE/MAGIC? Please tell us in the comments.
I wrote an article for the latest issue of MEANS Magazine. It includes reflections on shakuhachi-making and initiatives to build artistic infrastructures outside of the decaying machinery of established institutions. Loads of goodies in here apart from me! Support the resistance — pick up a copy.
We've decided to extend HOPE and MAGIC on our Substack. There were about 100 submissions for MEANS #3 and they are too good to just disappear, so we're releasing them as a series on our Substack. Get your copy on Bandcamp before they're gone.

The Charm by Shugorei is a sonic collision of diverse influences, from IDM to classical music. It's a unique and distinctly vivacious experience, combining western and japanese musicianship.
