Amusement N°6 The bugged issue !
AMUSEMENT 6 contains hundreds of computer failures and mishaps that will probably make it the buggiest issue in press’s history. Being, as a whole, a stylistic experience revolving around the bug in its many forms. Some twenty articles put the bug in perspective as a part of today’s creative universe (used for its aesthetic qualities by artists or exploited by gamers) and look into the influences those malfunctioning systems have on our daily lives and on our societies.
Amongst the series :
“Overheating” (by Romain Laurent) captures what happens when our favorite gadgets bug;
“DéraPages” (By Khuong Nguyen and the Creative Sweatshop) imagines a video game paper world where everything goes wrong;
Photographer Isabelle Bonjean (Vogue, Wallpaper*…) hijacks some of nerd culture’s well known objects as if they had been conceived the wrong way, and Marc Da Cunha Lopes captures the first ever actual bug in highly technological places. Photographs below.
Through hundred of bugs, computer malfunctions, printing mishaps and visual series, AMUSEMENT pushes on with its will to bring more than information: a creative platform and innovative object that is able to question our digital environment.
