By the Book: Brickfields We See You

Brickfields We See You is a new zine that explores Brickfields through writing, illustrations and photos - and in this episode, we speak with one of its creators, Adriana Noordin Manan, about why she wanted to put this together, and what the whole process was like. And in a broader sense, we also wanted to explore the world of zines and the space they occupy, which is why we were also joined by Shari Elis Jaffri, who's no stranger to zines. Following that, in Footnotes, we ask them for some of their favourite titles and editions.
