O://By Tank//Fashion Scan

Something I really love and have tonnes of enthusiasm for is where fashion and technology meet, in my opinion it's a direction i'd love to see developed more than it already is. Something which really caught my eye when I bought TANK was their animated fashion supplient 'O:' by downloading the app Fashion Scan you're able to scan pages to see animated content.

This is honestly an idea I LOVE, if everyone thinks print is going to die out then is this not a new way to pump life into it? I've seen so much to do with augmented reality with video games so why not develop new apps to revitalise print? 

It's fun, image being able to get an invite to a fashion show you can't attend, you could have an app that allows you to see the show from anywhere in the world? Fashion week could be in the palm of your hands, all achievable through technology. I wanted to talk about this just because I think in the long term this is something which we'll begin to see more and more of and one day might be another direction we move in with regards to fashion promotion techniques? All I can say is bravo for someone deciding to blur the lines between print and animation and breathe new life into what some have refered to as a dead medium.

TANK//DANSK

So for uni we've been given the task of looking at magazines and producing our own magazine in groups and I wanted to look at some different magazines from my usual i-D and Dazed. I literally had no idea where to start and being the person I am decided to find a magazine I liked based on visuals, I mean c'mon visuals is always the first thing I look at! 

Finally after looking at various magazines like Hunger, Russh and trying not to buy i-D I finally decided to get both TANK and Dansk. Honestly I just picked these cause I felt they stood out the most of all the magazines but I have to say I'm really happy with my decisions. 

//TANK VOLUME 7 ISSUE 7//

I think that TANK is totally going to become a regular in my ever growing magazine, I love it all of it. The content, the paper literally all of it! I even love the size of it but the photography in here is amazing, I generally love anything rich in colour so this is right up my alley. 

//DANSK ISSUE 29//

DANSK again is probably going to come a regular in my collection some of the photography in it is breathtaking, the photographs from the above shoot are amazing. The whole concept of it is just gorgeous and in my opinion hilarious, I just love the idea of her being so glamourous in the office she's in.

With TANK selling for £6 and DANSK for £5 how could I not want both, they're perfect and a much appreciated change from my regular publications.
