"Dystopia Now" and "Utopia Now," two revolutionary book projects by Kings College London's research team, meld artistic expression with academic exploration. Walk with us through their creative writing magazine printing expedition with ExWhyZed.
"Dystopia Now" and "Utopia Now" are canvases painted with the colours of young people's thoughts, hopes, and fears, expressed through various forms from poetic verses to digital landscapes in Minecraft. ExWhyZed, a prominent name in the sphere of illustrated magazine printing, was entrusted to translate these abstract expressions into tangible forms, reaffirming their position in magazine printing in London.
Each book, while being part of the same thematic set, stands unique in its content and character. "Dystopia Now," a 68-page exploration, delves into the effects of the pandemic on the lives and futures of the young generation. "Utopia Now," a 40-page research endeavour, investigates the societal aspirations of today's youth. Both the books showcase a 4pp cover on 300gsm Recycled Uncoated with Matt Lamination to the outer, a testament to ExWhyZed's commitment to environmental responsibility. The text, printed on 120gsm Recycled Uncoated in full colour, creates a harmonious blend of aesthetics and sustainability. After being trimmed, collated, and perfect bound, the books emerge as stellar exemplars of creative writing magazine printing.
This a super neat print spec which is both cost-effective to print and professional to read.

From the avant-garde design of Shellsuit Zombie to the immersive narrative of Triple Cooked Issue 3, and the captivating content of Shooter Literary Zine, ExWhyZed has proven time and again their prowess in zine printing.
The launch of "Dystopia Now" and "Utopia Now" made waves in the literary world.

Each page of these works echoes ExWhyZed's craftsmanship, setting the standard in creative writing magazine printing.
