Playground is the magazine that dares to explore, question, and re-envision the creative industries. Through thought-provoking essays, reports, and bold, honest conversations, it’s where curiosity meets play and inspiration. 

As more creatives choose to work independently and break free from rigid structures, it’s clear there’s a drive to escape rules, hierarchies, mistrust, and dishonesty. As a concept, freedom is personal and means something different to everyone. In this issue, freedom is examined from multiple angles. It felt like a conversation that needed more airtime. 

Featuring:

A special report featuring insights from creatives in over 30 countries, uncovering emerging trends and perspectives on what freedom means to them.
- An exploration of satire as escapism and alternatives to social media.
- The contrast of play and freedom and how rules can sometimes enhance creativity.
- Different states of freedom.
- Conversations with inspiring creatives: Alex Holder on bookshops and financial transparency, Yuri Suzuki on sound and interactive art, and Ola Mirecka on creativity both independently and within corporations.
