_Weapons of Reason_ is a publishing project by design agency, "Human After All.":https://www.humanafterall.co.uk/ Edited by James Cartwright, each edition focuses on a particular issue – including power, megacities and the Arctic – and for the most recent edition, the focus is on food. The magazine tackles a variety of questions around our relationship to food, its production, and the corporations who control it. Here, It’s Nice That speaks to James about taking risks, trying to create change and how editing _Weapons of Reason_ has impacted his own choices.
The new issue of _Weapons of Reason_ , published by agency Human After All is the second in the series covering the interconnected global issues we are, and are going to live through. This issue, edited by It’s Nice That alumni James Cartwright takes megacities as its starting point, which by definition are cities with a population greater than 10 million. The magazine’s aim is to make them “less mega – more digestible and much easier to understand.” He elaborates: “We want [our readers] to grasp the problems they pose and think about how [they] might make a difference to their future.” A subject of such scale requires a lot of research: “We read a bunch of white papers, books, online articles and went to a couple of conferences hosted by the World Economic Forum. We spoke to academics all over the place to discuss their specific areas of research and contacted NGOs and charities to ask their advice,” explains James. After sifting through the information and working out the areas to explore further they went to press with a magazine packed with features as varied as the problem of youth loneliness in Tokyo, cybercrime, how to build the perfect city and the journey of a Mexican turd.
