IN THIS ISSUEThe first copy of Photoshop came in a chunky cardboard box. Designers paid once and it was theirs forever. We've regressed from owners to perpetual renters of our own means of production. Everything's a subscription: movies, music, transportation, clothing, culture, all of it metered and monitored monthly. You own nothing (unless you're one of those "weirdos" hoarding milk crates full of analog media and, if so, we salute you). Some faceless corporate creep charging us rent just to use tools is NOT CHILL and decidedly disrespectful to the craft. Tools shape the work, ownership shapes agency, and we're digging into the whole mess. Riso-printed and hand-bound in San Francisco
