“[Modern] Matter is the start of a new magazine culture that seeks to help us define the anthropological affects of technology through the tactile medium and allure of print.” – Prote.in.

As cultural commentary suggests that the magazine industry is being usurped by the new age of the digital, Modern Matter magazine seeks to explore the advances of modern technology into the world of the artist, via an analogue medium – namely, that of the printed page. Modern Matter’s interest lies not just in the newest product or the fastest download, but rather, in the impact which technology has had on the culture of the creative.
