For those who are in desperate need of stimulation, this zine delivers - its visual language is razor-sharp and packed with colour, each page feels like a porno magazine that has vomited everywhere.

In his short film Papers (1991), the Japanese artist Yoshinao Satoh assembles thousands of newspaper images into a transfixing animation. Moving through a flurry of Japanese characters, moon phases, Go games, house plans and faces that grows ever faster, Satoh creates a mass-media collage that seems to anticipate the age of information overload. Amplifying the frenzied pace and mesmerising effect, he pairs the imagery with a propulsive work by the US composer Steve Reich.

We've all sat through a training video that felt longer than The Irishman. Slide after slide, bullet point after bullet point, until your brain starts quietly planning dinner instead of paying attention. Here's the truth: today's learners don't just prefer engaging content, they expect it. They scroll through TikToks, binge-watch explainer videos, and absorb information in colorful, fast-paced bursts. So when training feels like an old PowerPoint deck, attention is gone before the second slide.
"It is important to me to have a connection with my subjects. The connection helps me to intuitively move through the process. I combine these photographs with found images to create an initial collage and then I sit with it for months, or years, changing and manipulating it over time."
