NANG is a 10-issue magazine dedicated to cinema in Asia. A limited-edition collection of words and images on cinema, for knowledge, inspiration, and enjoyment.

Issue 8 is dedicated to Loud Mess. Writers, artists, filmmakers, record collectors, photographers, and sound designers come together here to reflect on moments of madness and excess embedded in the experience of spectatorship and the craft of filmmaking. With heady images and juicy ideas, this Issue reveals the sensory drama of a cinema that is visceral, trippy, and yet profound. Moments of musical ecstasy are mixed with the grime of horror. Sexy images are intricately woven together with political history. The power of transgression resonates in the exposition of filmmaking processes that embrace mistakes, failures, and instances of chance. The mainstream and the avant-garde find themselves comfortably alongside each other. As you turn the page, you will experience the celebration of loudness and messiness of cinema spilling over into everyday life itself.
