In a year defined by technology and reinvention, Going Down Swinging is embracing the web in this boundary-pushing, augmented reality-enabled digital edition.

Featuring work by ten writers and artists, Going Down Swinging #41 collates stories that (literally) come to life away from the printed page, with augmented reality design by Annelli Goeller. Including prose, comics, sound, and even a game, each piece demands your attention and participation.

GDS #41 features work by:

STACY GOUGOULIS
XANTHE DOBBIE
MANDY ORD
CECILE RICHARD
LUJAYN HOURANI
CLAUDIA CHINYERE AKOLE
NICKY MINUS
JON TJHIA
MARC PEARSON
AARON BILLINGS

Edited by Magenta Sheridan and designed by Jacqui Hagen, with augmented reality by Anneli Goeller.

And for those who still crave the feeling of something physical, we’re unleashing the Offline Fighter set, featuring a GDS #41 tote, art print set and sticker sheet to bring this online edition direct to your house. In person. For real.

The limited edition art print set includes ten full-colour, double-sided postcards featuring augmented reality-enabled artwork by all ten of the Edition #41 artists, while the tote and sticker sheet boasts exclusive artwork by illustrator and comics artist Kim Lam to take GDS with you through your ordinary offline day.

Going Down Swinging #41 is available through a pay-what-you-feel model – because everyone deserves some art right now.

Launches January 22nd 2021.
