Timeline of Zines & Architecture Publication

I presented this timeline for the first time in my “Architecture Print is Dead, Long Live Architecture Print!” exhibition at the First Tehran Architecture Biennial; running from May 12 until July 13, 2016.


1926

Hugo Gernsback published “Amazing Stories” in New York. It was the first magazine devoted solely to science fiction. In “Amazing Stories” he allowed for a large letter column which printed reader's addresses. By 1927, readers, often young adults, would write to each other, bypassing the magazines.
