The primer concept of Famous was that of an entirely white magazine, empty,
devoid of any visual representation. Only names, of real or virtual "anti-contributors",
would have come to the light of such an immaculate matter.
Thereafter, Famous became a polymorphous magazine, with fluctuation directive lines
and variable contents. Dissolving subjective identities on behalf of the purpose,
Famous can also take the decision to use star system's codes in order to have diverse
individualities emerge. Famous wants to be theoretical and practical, intimate and mundane.

Famous was a fanzine support, born in march 2002 for the in-shop session in Paris,
to illustrate what Tsunami-Addiction's people were selling. It works with theme,
but in this theme it will embrace all artistic fields around music, fashion, art etc…
