This may be the digital age but not everyone's buying into it. Enter The Luddite, a letterpress-printed, handcrafted magazine telling the human stories that tend to get glossed over in the digital age.
"Inspired by 18th-century fictional rebel Ned Ludd, The Luddite is a magazine whose essence is to reexamine our relationship with technology," publishers Matt Davis and Louise Armstrong said in a press release.
The pair got Kickstarter backing to design and produce the limited-edition eight-page magazine with the help of Wapping, U.K.-based letterpress printer Phil Abel, who runs Hand & Eye Letterpress. The magazine also features top-notch design and is illustrated by artists Hannah Simpson and Christopher Brown.
