Real Review – Issue 13
Real Review Issue 13 (Mining the Past) is available now on loremnotipsum.com. All times appear equally and at once. The past no longer recedes in an orderly way, but threatens to resurface at any moment in the guise of the contemporary. Nostalgia cycles are getting faster. Old material artefacts return as integral components of current trends. The future is no longer desirable or unforeseen.CHF 19.00 (incl. VAT)2 items in stock -

Real Review – Issue 12
Real Review Issue 12 (Absolute Proximity) is available now on loremnotipsum.com. The people and things we want feel very far away. Everything else feels far too near. Daily life is incorrectly calibrated. Lockdown kept us painfully apart.CHF 19.00 (incl. VAT)2 items in stock -

Real Review – Issue 11
Real Review Issue 11 (What to believe) is here. The collective trauma of the pandemic has become an excuse for global capital to accelerate the total commodification of everyday life. Everything is for sale. There is more merchandise than love, more sponsored content than truth. No society in human history has demanded so many people be such active participants in producing the contemporary. No contemporary has ever been so aggressively monetised.CHF 20.00 (incl. VAT)Last item in stock -

Real Review – Issue 10
The Real Review Magazine Issue 10 (New Renaissance) is here. We can't go back, but we don't want to. Nor can we go on like this much longer.

Real Review – Issue 9
The Real Review Magazine Issue 9 (End Times) is about a different relationship with the future, as truly beyond our prediction or conception. It concerns inaction, a new type of passivity and patience, a heightened sense of our own being in the world, our collective humanity, and the value of non-human life.CHF 18.00 (incl. VAT) Sold out -

Real Review – Issue 8
The Real Review Magazine Issue 8 (Against from withing) is here. To be against from within is to identify critical concentrations of power, become experts in their internal logic, then develop methods for inhabiting and altering their operations.CHF 17.00 (incl. VAT) Sold out -

Real Review – Issue 7
The Real Review Magazine Issue 7 is out now (Woke Awakening). Why are some white people scared of a Black Planet? We interview RENI EDDO-LODGE to find out. Meanwhile, BUCKMINSTER FULLER reviews God, and ALICE BARKER (aka @PUPPYCODES) reviews algorithmic profiling.CHF 17.00 (incl. VAT) Sold out -

Real Review – Issue 6
The Real Review Magazine Issue 6 is out now (Just in time). The challenges to our species have never been more obvious, yet the required actions have never seemed more impossible. After several decades, Just-in-Time production (only making what you need, only when you need it) has become a generalised model. We now expect everything on demand, from clothing to houses, and food to friends.CHF 17.00 (incl. VAT) Sold out -

Real Review – Issue 5
The Real Review Magazine Issue 5 is out now (What it means to love today?). We live in extremely uncertain times. Our faith in the future is increasingly tested. Far from being a hopeful, utopian domain, the future now seems doubtful. But what does it mean to doubt today?CHF 17.00 (incl. VAT) Sold out -

Real Review – Issue 4
The Real Review Magazine Issue 4 is out now (What it means to love today?). The contemporary 24-hour news cycle is a swirling gyre of political and economic intrigue, a rolling wave that surges ceaselessly, always building power but never forming a crest. To surf the slipstream of the news is to be forever on the brink of BREAKING.CHF 17.00 (incl. VAT) Sold out
