'Commissioning and publishing new photography'

Taking their name from the literary term hapax legomenon meaning ‘a one off or that which is recorded once’, issue five of this slick, small-format photography mag considers itself an incubator for seven artists to test a new style, idea, or departure from their typical work.

Featured inside are exclusively commissioned projects by Jenny Lewis, Mohsen Yazdipour, Issam Larkat, and Amak Mahmoodian; Tshepiso Moropa collages a story of a man, a tree, and a cure; Regine Petersen explores parallel realities of Elvis Presley, featuring images from the musician's estate; and Máté Bartha trains the camera on summer's unsung heroes: external air conditioning units.

Oh, and make sure to appreciate the nifty pull-out pages tucked away inside...
