THE TECHNICOLOR EXPERIENCE CENTER The Technicolor Experience Center is about what happens when creativity meets emerging technologies. It’s about the partnerships that discover how stories can be told and delivered in new and ever more immersive ways. And, it’s about making the impossible possible, and doing it together.

Con Chi Modu Chi developed relationships with the biggest icons of the hip hop movement, including Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G., Mary J. Blige, and L-L Cool J, most of whom were not yet famous at the time. His photos include some of the most groundbreaking, memorable images of that era which have graced the covers of Rolling Stone Magazine and Jazz Times, and album covers for Snoop, Method Man, Mobb Deep, Mad Lion, and Christian McBride. We are very proud to be able to share some of them with you. Ryan James Caruthers Since graduating from Parsons the New School for Design in 2016, LA-based photographer Ryan James Caruthers has not only won the 2017 British Journal of Photography’s Breakthrough Awards, but has also been busy shooting editorials for Dazed, Coeval, FY!, New York Magazine and many more. We thank him for providing us with an intimate portfolio of almost poetic images of intersections of age, race, class, gender, and body type. Zohar Winner Zohar Winner is an incredibly talented graphic artist based in Berlin. She works across the mediums of illustration, graphic design and set design. After graduating at the Bezalel Academy of Art & Design in Jerusalem, she worked predominantly as an art director in the fashion field. Since we consider a good illustration to be the cherry on the cake for any magazine, Zohar didn’t hesitate to provide the much-needed complement for the magazine. Walter Pfeiffer Walter Pfeiffer is a Zürich-based photographer whose portraits of friends, lovers, still life and scenery, always taken with a large dose of fun, not only inspired a generation of photographers, but also contributed a far more varied and modern view of what it means to be queer. Together with Julian Zigerli, Pfeiffer shot Roman, one of his ‘Walter Boys’, especially for his Autumn Winter 2018 collection. tribu Shaun Ross Shaun Ross’s newest music video, filmed at Popsicle LA, features the model-turnedmusician emerging breaking out of a chrysalis. Of course it is the breaking out that the lyrics refer to. It is also a song about the beauty of transforming into the truest version of yourself. Since transformation and triumph always seem to be the biggest points of Shaun’s life we were glad he gave us some very personal insight on those important topics. Slava Mogutin Slava Mogutin focuses on the more universal themes of desire and estrangement while letting his camera range over seemingly spontaneous situations and marginal scenes to capture the urban gay subculture in particular. Since the sneaker market is really taking off, we felt Slava’s work would be the best to illustrate what has also become a fetish for the $65 billion footwear industry. tors Symone Ridgell 2018 summertime heat called for a little—or a lot of—vintage glamour. We reached out to Symone Ridgell, LA Video producer at PAPER magazine, to add some of the late 80s vibes and glam to our magazine before the inevitable autumn approaches, and the bright and shiny colors mute and begin to darken our souls. In that aim, we thank her for achieving the radical chic which will now shine through our pages. CONTRIBUTORS
