Metroplis Magazine: Pioneering “New” Trends

| November 15th, 2011

Once again, Metropolis Magazine proves it is at the forefront of Technology by placing a QR code on the cover of its October issue. The magazine is VERY proud of this achievement, calling it a Quantum Leap for the publication industry. However, the QR code – which has been used for years by advertisers – leaves a lot to be desired. Upon scanning it, you are taken to a short 20 second video which “brings the cover to life.” We here at gray_matter(s) are not impressed, so we have decided to come up with a list of cover stories that will truly bring Metropolis Magazine to the forefront of design. //
