PHOTO COMPETITION: We have some books for you.

As we don’t have quite so many, we are going to make some distinction, but it’s simple. If you want to be the lucky one, please take a picture from somewhere up, like you were looking from zeppelin, and send it to us at: comunicare@zeppelin-magazine.net

And don’t forget: higher you are taking the picture from, better it is. For sure you can find something like a balcony, some skyscraper, an attic window or a tower. Besides your award book, you gain the chance to be published, posted and complimented by Zeppelin team. So that we are all ready, let’s start! We are waiting for your “up pictures” until June 29th, Wednesday night. June 30th we are announcing the winners, displaying the photos on fb as well as on our site.

We go zeppelin from now on!

The crew is ready to take off, the people have fastened their belts in their seats (or in a comfortable coach or against our school’s famous radiators) and are ready to read zeppelin. Dear readers, we should tell you that from among thousands charming stories the name under which our journal has been picked to go on signifies the capacity to soar, to dare high, and to meditate. We have found zeppelins and architectures in the Instant City project by Archigram, in the Schuiten and Peeters’ cartoons, in old movies, fabulous drawings and in a multitude of other situations. We fell in love with the metaphor, poetry built in the sound of it, with the idea of technologyoptimistic associations it urges, and with the privileged perspective on the city, you have,  from this dirigible. Its bountiful imagery and retro futuristic content feeds us all and perfectly reflects the personal style of the crew in the nacelle, and as you might have noticed it for three years now it is a powerful engine of cultural life.
