The Funambulist magazine – the new venture from Léopold Lambert to sit alongside his Funambulist blog and  Archipelago podcast – was launched this week. Léopold kindly gave me a copy when I saw him in Paris earlier this month. The first issue is on the theme of Militarised Cities.

You can buy the first issue here; and subscription details for both the print and digital editions are here.
