The 76-page publication is $15 — here’s a look at a few pages inside.

  • KIE No More

    —

    Yet another casualty of the precarious economic climate: Kateigaho International Edition is now over. Quite a shame — it was an attractive magazine, and I had the pleasure of contributing a few pieces to it in the past.

  • Bape and SV

    —

    ,

    Two things you would want to pick up: Rizzoli’s gorgeous book on A Bathing Ape, and the latest issue of Studio Voice (398). Holding said products in the photos above, that would be the lovely Marie, who did translations for both.

  • Magazines at Cafe Pause

    —

    ,

    I know I don’t do magazine round-ups anymore here, and I haven’t updated the Cafe Pause blog in a while concerning new magazines, but I do in fact still curate the magazine selection there, and picked up a few more today, which I’ve listed on the cafe’s blog.

  • Abaco Magazine

    —

    , ,

    Abaco Magazine is a downloadable photo-heavy PDF zine created by two Italians in Tokyo, Alessandro Silvestri and Flavio Parisi. Reminds me of my old Geisha zine, which only very, VERY old readers of this site will remember.

    —

    ,

    I’ve of course been having a hand in all the pieces that have gone up at PingMag since I started there earlier this month, but last night marked the appearance of my first proper interview, with French gaming/digital culture magazine Amusement ‘s editor-in-chief, Abdel Bounane. Really happy with how it turned out, and big thanks…
