et me introduce myself: I
am 4GUYS’s new Editor in
Chief. And begining with the
September issue—redesigned
and reimagined—we will learn
from one another what a magazine is, and what it can be, in our
always changing new world.
To start, let me say that
I am a magazine enthusiast,
a junkie who from my earliest
school days has been obsessed
with flipping though the pages
of magazines, first absorbed in
their images and stories, later
assigning and editing my own.
I really believe that no matter
whether a magazine is delivered
to your doorstep or to your computer, printed on glossy stock or
on cheap tabloid paper, appear
on your iPad or your cell-phone
screen, it is still and foremost the
work of an editorial team for a
discerning audience, a beautiful
and meaningful— we hope—
package of ideas, words and
images that a group of experts
prepares for its readers.
While technology efficiently delivers news stories to
our desktops, laptops and mobile devices, magazines are all
about context—how ideas and
images are presented in relation to one another and within a
larger point of view. Magazines
are about trust and partnership:
We, the editors, will strive always
to keep you engaged; you, the
readers, are free to engage with
us or to reject us.
