SPIRAL #2
Tribalism
£20.00
The future is always rooted in a sort of fantasy — a utopia that is both a promise and a lie — depending on which member of society you ask. Football, like the country that birthed it, has always reflected both these polarities. Issue II promptly uses this premise as a jumping off point to tackle what the Future of football could hold. Is it a future worth celebrating or just much of the same? We explore everything from the rise of the NFL, how data is redefining the way we consume the game, Fox Sports’ Cleatus, Tom Brady’s undying quest for immortality, the international voices growing the sport abroad, to the women who are spearheading the law and order of the gridiron. We tapped a list of international artists, writers, designers and photographers who shared their love for the game, including a special rendition of HALFTIME by Pete Sharp and interviews with Chris Godwin, PLAYLAB, YGTUT and OUR LEGACY.
SPIRAL is an annual publication that bridges the gap between football and culture. Each issue is spiral bound, features a variety of paper stocks and will focus on a particular theme that ties in voices from the spheres of art, design, music and fashion.
