It takes a special kind of magazine to make an airport tolerable during the school holidays. In a sea of screaming kids, irascible check-in attendants and cashed up bogans on their way to Noosa I clutched my copy of Get This! like a nervous traveller clutches the armrest.
In almost every way Get This! became an antidote to the madness around me. Unlike the man next to me wearing Crocs and Thai fisherman's pants, Get This! had taste to burn; it's well designed, subtly styled by Tavlin Charter, beautifully shot by Bec Parsons, humorously written by Axle Moline and insightfully compiled into a coherent magazine that is more of a read than a flip.
What defines Get This! is its intimacy and God knows you need to feel that when you're in a queue with half of Australia clutching a boarding pass that labels you by your seat number 32C. It feels like a project put together by your smartest, most creative friends and serves as a reminder of the great talent that awaits you away from the baggage carousel.
