In an age of terrorism it is good to see the word hijacked in a positive context. Similarly, in a world of two-a-penny self-indulgent rambling zines, it is refreshing to have this publishing medium shown in a good light as well.
Hijacked is a small limited edition production. Xerox quality, black and white and as lo-fi as it is loveable. Largely featuring Australian creatives, Hijacked regularly has contributions from international artists and writers. Each issue is themed and features photos, paintings, doodles, designs, stories and other things (apart from your bum) that can be photocopied and made into A5.
Hijacked has no advertising and is published by Modm publishing in cahoots with Perth duo Keith and Lottie. Each issue is launched with an exhibition of featured works and a party. Issue #007 – “Mugshots” and Issue #008 – “Melbourne City Serpents” are being launched at Loop this Sunday the 12th Feb. See OUT for details.
