In today's world of immediacy, algorithms, and burnout, it's all too easy for otherwise meaningful photography and articles to simply disappear into the never-ending sea of content. Attempting to press pause on this digital media intake cycle with a slower medium is DAYBREAK, a new biannual print publication founded by Midwest-based designer and photographer Tommy Moore.
Positioned at the intersection of the creative and outdoor worlds, DAYBREAK's glossy pages are filled with photographs and stories highlighting musicians, painters, the occasional surfboard shaper, and so much more.
"The general idea behind it all is trying to take the gritty content of your standard adventure magazine and then juxtapose [it with] the airiness and simplicity of the museum-grade art book," Moore tells us. The combination begets a truth and stillness only carefully crafted print visual media can provide.
