Meridian Magazine - Issue #1

Sitting and smoking on that roof, between old chimneys, awoke my imagination. Maybe the people who used to work in this place, years ago – the factory was established in 1918 – also went up to this roof to smoke. They had their lives, wives, children, duties, plans, dreams, salaries. They lived in a time I only knew from books.

But then again, maybe not only… Sitting on this roof, I felt like both time and space were the same. Maybe this is exactly the kind of thing people call “travelling”?

About

First issue of the Meridian Magazine. The Meridian Magazine is the fruit of a collaboration between creative minds from all over the world to build a revolutionary kind of electronic magazine, bringing together works from each of the 24 main time zones of the planet. These works include virtually all types of digital media, including texts, photos and graphic works, music, videos, etc. They will eventually be published to mobile devices in the shape of a digital “app”, online, and eventually also printed. We try to make sure each of these works reflects part of the “spirit” of the place in which they were conceived. We also want them to be fully representative of the ‘Meridian view of the world’ — which propones equality, diversity, creativity and truthfulness. Those works are gathered according to a main topic chosen for each issue of the magazine.
