The
ID Magazine Challenge
Since the advent of printed
words men have strived to promote their ideas in written form.
It is hard to tell when the first magazine was ever published. Some say the
"magazines of the world" timeline began in March 1672 with the publication
of the French intellectual journal Mercure Galant (later known as Mercure de
France). Established in Paris by Jean Donneau de Vise. Others say "it was
later than that as the term 'magazine' was first employed to signify a
periodical miscellany by Edward Cave, who as 'Sylvanus Urban, Gent', started
the Gentleman's Magazine, the first to use the word in its title, in January
1731 (Source The New Shell Book of Firsts).
Whichever is true the fact of the matter is magazines are here to stay and
they are the epitome of propagation of written and visual ideas and
messages. Unlike TV media you can pick one up and browse thru and save and
browse again and cut images out and highlight your favorite text and
passages.
Now with the age of computer and graphics the publishing of magazines has
become a daily routine. We now challenge you to create your own magazine cover. 1 - Any title you wish
2 - Any theme you wish. From the family oriented to the naughty and sexy.
Our rules are 'freedom of expression' period.
3 - Any layout you chose.
4 - Avoid plagiarisms as much as possible. Be creative and do your own
stuff.
In Greek
mythology, Aphrodite is the goddess of love, beauty and sexual rapture.
According to Hesiod, she was born when
Uranus (the
father of the gods) was castrated by his son
Cronus. Cronus
threw the severed genitals into the ocean which began to churn and foam
about them. From the aphros ("sea foam") arose Aphrodite, and the
sea carried her to either Cyprus or Cythera. Hence she is often referred to
as Kypris and Cytherea. Homer calls her a daughter of
Zeus and Dione.
