UPDATE: HOW WE ROLL

So, we've been blogging to you our research and ideas for the creation of Middle Magazine, along with examples and previews of contributors work and articles...so here's a quick description of what we're hoping to actually achieve with Middle...


The magazine is first and foremost focused on the promotion of creativity and raw talent. Genuine, outstanding talent that defies the the mainstream; young artists, photographers, designers, musicians, models, film makers, DJ's/producers, dancers, singers, rappers, illustrators, graphic designers, sportspersons, writers, journalists; whatever the talent is, we're dying to showcase it. The point of all this showing off is not just for aesthetic pleasure, but to ultimately encourage other budding creatives to get out there and embrace what they're good at.


So why are we called Middle? Well to put it bluntly, because the magazine is Midlands based; we're particularly interested in creavity rooting from Nottingham and it's surrounding areas, because there is a lot happening here that people should know about. For the launch issue of Middle, we will be talking to a graphic designer who runs his own clothing label, a quirky, kitsch up and coming artist, an aspiring, busy and beautiful model, and a soon to be signed techno house DJ; featuring some of their finest work so far, and delving into the minds behind their passions.


The soon to be launched Middle Mag site will take the concept of emerging talent to another level, will be completely interactive as creatives can send us their work and we'll be publishing it online for the world to appreciate.

As well as introducing fresh creativity through the magazine and site, Middle will also look back at influential heroes of fashion, culture and the arts. Articles and photographs will be posted to inspire readers and give scope to broaden their imaginations. On top of all this celebration, Middle will also cover articles and features on fashion, music, nightlife, street style and culture in and around Nottingham, so follow the blog for updates on the magazine launch and all the exciting things that are set to come with it!
