Since 2010 changing editorial teams of young design students research write layout and
produce the bi-annual Some Magazine. It is a part of the experimental design course of Prof.
Sven Völker at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam. Giving this issue the theme of
»Action« is to acknowledge the obvious fact that standing still is no longer an option. When
everything is in flux action isn't only essential for changing political and ethical systems
it becomes an essential force for understanding the power we hold in shaping our own lives. We
may be living through times of intense turmoil but these are also the periods in which we find
the greatest and most wide-ranging opportunities for change. The potential is almost
infinite-but only if we take a stance. The world isn't going to wait for us. Guest
editors-in-chief of the new issue are journalists Hendrik Lakeberg and Hans Bussert. You'll
find exclusive shots and drawings of flying kite constructions by artist and illustrator Tomi
Ungerer a conversation with New York director Bharata Selassie and also an entire street
called »Danny the Street « which is actually a super hero.
