An oversized, unwieldy publication that demands your space, time, and attention. Perforated spreads are designed to be torn, folded, and transformed — allowing stories to evolve into sculptural forms. Each motion draws you deeper into the experience, turning attention itself into a material. Bound with an exposed Coptic stitch in a custom YOU ARE HERE pattern. 14 × 14.5 in

You Are Here. A phrase you’ve seen a hundred times — on shopping mall maps, in that meme with Earth floating in the solar system, or buried in your copy of The Power of Now. But Pilot’s take is clouded — entangled in existentialism, wrestling with rootedness.

Right now, the line between attention and distraction is razor thin. Whether it’s in your morning routine (never quite optimized enough), or in the broader public consciousness (alert yet automatic), we’re overwhelmed by information. Trapped in feedback loops, caught in a collective noise that drowns out perspective and presence. But is it always necessary to be present? When can escapism offer clarity? And what might it really mean — to be here, now?

The contributors of Issue 06 navigate that tension — toggling between showing up and fading out. You’ll hear from designer Matthew Prebeg, who explores digital liminality as an opportunity for reflection and reorientation. Writer Valerie Estrina leans all the way into the messy middle in What the Hell, Sure — reminding us that sometimes the best you can do is to throw your hands up and keep it moving. Elsewhere, comedian and media entrepreneur Kareem Rahma embraces escapism for what it is — turning absurdity into clarity, and showing us what happens when you let go of the need for meaning entirely.
