A downloadable zine

Orbit is a BTS zine that explores the concept of being through storytelling.

Inspired by 7 boys from Korea and the limitless world beyond theirs, the zine will feature original work from 60+ artists, writers, and graphic designers.

In short, Orbit is a space-themed zine! 

Beyond the concept of space as a setting or aesthetic, the theme of this zine is meant to encourage contributors to include reflective, analytical, and/or metaphorical interpretations of space and BTS.

For example, you might take the concept of a red giant (a dying star) and use its space terminology as a metaphor to talk about exhaustion or burnout. You might then go on to visualize a piece where Jimin is dancing and glowing to a point where he looks as if he’s about to explode—perhaps his shoes are worn, his eyes are dull or lacking passion, etc—and the space imagery might be tied in directly through his costume, the setting, or background elements. 

There are many different ways to interpret Orbit's theme!

The project will be visualized through 2 sections:

✧ Aphelion: The point in the orbit of a planet, asteroid, or comet at which it is furthest from the sun.

  • Work in the Aphelion section of the zine will touch more on darker subjects such as grief, loss, loneliness, burn-out, exhaustion, negative emotions, or circumstances one might face. It could also be a space to explore darker concepts.

✧ Perihelion: The point in the orbit of a planet, asteroid, or comet at which it is closest to the sun.

  • Work in the Perihelion section of the zine will lean more towards the “lighter” aspects in regards to subject matter. It could include things like discovery, astrology, growth, love, excitement, etc.
