This is an absolute shot fired in the dark.
Had a hard drive fail, and it had loads of old mags in it. Real wild mid school shit from the aughts. There is one series that I really want back, but I can't fucking wiggle the name out of my head.
The only descriptors I have are it was UK / Euro, trains, there was a time where everyone was painting this stupid bird, and it sported the irreverence of Big Brother.
- The NT vid? https://www.youtube.…PhanLo
- No, it was a mag / zine that went on for a bit. I do remember the NT vid though lol. There were loads of weird interviews and flicks.garbage
- It was the type of publication that had instructions for a sembrador de terror before they were en vogue.garbage
- Graphotism maybe? But that was quite clean in comparison to a lot of other magsPhanLo
- Detailed instructions like "steal a fire extinguisher, empty it out, re-pressurize with paint, try not to blow yourself up unless you're down with that".garbage

As much as I'd LOVE a Futura piece in my home, I think I'd rather spend the $1k getting to NYC to the exhibition.microkorg - Sounds like it'll be epic!microkorg
