Meantime is an independent magazine documenting Singapore stories lost to time. Published annually, each issue uncovers our past through personal stories.
In this issue:
-
A tiger roams a shop in Singapore’s Chinatown
-
Men with long hair talk about their locks and their pops
-
In pursuit of better toilet standards, an activist makes himself the butt of the joke
-
Trans women and naked sailors put on a show at Bugis Street in the 1980s
-
Residents have a laugh at their street names
-
…and more!
A chewed up cover: The cover breaks the convention of what a publication should look like – in a fresh format that doesn’t take itself too seriously. We leave it to you to devour it ;)
An ode to print: Run your fingers through the paper to discover tactile details and plenty of print surprises: an exposed thread spine, tip-ins, hot stamping, and a special pantone neon palette.
A trippy experience: Interact with the stories through Augmented Reality (AR). Scan the pages with your phone using an exclusive filter on Meantime’s Instagram. Then see the magic happen.
