With a founding date of 1854, BJP is the world’s oldest and longest running photography magazine. But age has not caused it to stagnate—as they say, it's ‘not your usual game of picture karaoke.’

The latest issue engages with ‘Virtual Reality’ not just as a product of AI but as a result of photography's inevitable subjectivity. Work like Taysir Batniji's collection of glitchy video calls with relatives in Gaza, Zed Nelson's unrealistic reconstructions of nature, and Farah Al Qasimi's surreal landscapes from online video games all disrupt established perspectives and suggest alternative realities.
