Strange Light: Photos from the Australian Dust Storm

Derek Powazek put together a fantastic collection of images from the Australian dust storm in just 48 hours. He describes here how the magazine came to be. It’s published by the POD company MagCloud.

Here’s a cool interactive Flash preview of the finished product. The magazine has also been featured on Time’s web site, in an article which points out MagCloud’s shortcomings (no distribution, long wait times to print and ship copies). It’s an interesting look at where media’s headed. (via Jim Judd)
