Issue #47 Summer 2025 – 2HOLLIS

Welcome to the age of techno-feudalism — where democracy is optional. In 032c Issue #47, the dossier “Techno-Feudalism: I’m Sorry, But You Do Not Have Enough Coins for Democracy”, designed by David Carson, explores the prehistory and future of our current system with thinkers like Cédric Durand and Jens Hillebrand Pohl. Edited by Shane Anderson, it also includes Günseli Yalcinkaya’s look at the tech world’s obsession with knights in shining armor.

Elsewhere: posterboy 2hollis reflects on tarot and trauma in a story by Brandon Bowen, while Gabbriette stars in a fictional Steven Klein-style fantasy full of blood and desire. Destruction, surveillance, and war echo through artist profiles of Wolfgang Tillmans, Boris Mikhailov, Hito Steyerl, and Cyprien Gaillard.

Harriet Shepherd examines the cult of A24, and Lorenzo Bertelli reflects on art, rebellion, and being the son of Miuccia Prada. Caro Daur appears in a surreal locker room vignette, described as a modern Bernadette Mayer.

The X-Files introduce the cast of the 032c universe — from Thaiboy Digital and Nicolas Winding Refn to IC3PEAK, Hilton Als, Hideo Kojima, and Emanuele Coccia. As always, the Berlin Review rounds out the issue with the editors’ favorite reads of the season.
