Stories range from an essay about walking the Israel–Palestine border to a reassessment of the links between Futurism and fascism. A poem-like story balances a second generation immigrant’s reflection on their parents attitude to their new home country with an analysis of the use of punctuation to define their newly assigned nationality. It’s packed with similarly fascinating pieces linking art and design with the big issues facing our world

WE LOVE: the latest issue of Notebook magazine from

As smart-looking as ever, this sixth issue is all about Youth-the cover is a hand-drawn illustration from six-year-old Harriet Yu Yan Xia Parker—a response to a short film shown in Notebook’s new Children’s Cinema program

The issue also features six coming of age scenes, product placement as youth-targeted propaganda, adolescent fixations with gory imagery, Hollywood’s new de-ageing trends, and a TV schedule-like of ‘microcinema’ mapping viewings across TikTok, YouTube Shorts and IG reels
