Kan Zaman magazine

In this group project we were asked to create a magazine from scratch revolving around sound. We came up with Kan Zaman ( "The past" or a literal translation "It was then") , a retro looking magazine discussing sound and music. This month’s issue is a special timeline edition where all our articles centered on the idea of “sounds from our lives.” Since each student was instructed to design 3 spreads and a separator in both English and Arabic, we created sections: 1) Sounds we don’t get to hear from our childhood. 2) Extinct tech sounds. 3) Sounds we got used to hearing over time. 4) Sounds we have yet to hear. My section, sounds we have yet to hear, included sounds from the future. It was based on real articles with an addition of fantasy. I spoke about the sounds that we would hear in the near future such as those of robots, jet packs and flying cars. (The following are my contributions to the project)
