INTRUSO Magazine, Issue 2
We feel a constant and rising sense of invasion: parasites, notifications, drugs, bodies, catastrophes, aliens. But the line between who invades and who is invaded can be more blurred than we usually think, heavily depending on perspectives.
INTRUSO Magazine challenges readers to step out of their comfort zone and break free from their confining filter bubbles. The magazine gathers investigations, opinions and interviews about topical and divisive issues, to question pre-established boundaries and power dynamics, encouraging dialogue and fostering a deeper appreciation of differing viewpoints.
Each issue of the magazine won’t be limited to a single topic, instead it will be a collection of opinions and essays around every kind of invasion we experience everyday. Issue 2’s lead article is a moving story about how devastating AIDS was to families and communities in the 1980s, while the lead photojournal takes a look back at the infamous 1978 mass murder-suicide in Jonestown.
The logo is based on Tiny by Velvetyne. Continuous text and headlines are set in Suisse Int’l by Swiss Typefaces. Inserts are set in Messina Modern by Luzi Type. Navigation, footnotes, credits and tags are set in Suisse Int’l Mono. The article “Every temple needs its sacrifices” additionally uses Armag by Blaze Type, and “How to raise your kids and their followers” adds Compagnon Light Italic by Velvetyne.
Beside the mentioned typography, in the Index spread we featured Boogy Brut by Bureau Brut, GoodDog New by Ethan Paul Dunham, Cooper Black by Oswald Bruce Cooper, Modula Ribbed by Zuzana Licko, and ITC American Typewriter by Joel Kaden.
