No. 6
Plastikcomb Issue 6 opens with a thought‑provoking quote from Rick Rubin’s The Creative Act—“Rules direct us to average behaviours. … Average is nothing to aspire to”—this issue sets the tone for a visual feast that rejects ordinariness .

Inside, readers encounter editorial spreads designed by industry veterans and student collaborators from California College of the Arts, including Erik Heiman and the student-run studio TBD* With contributions from artists like Monsur Adeniyi Awotunde, Allan Belly, Laura Arteaga Charlton, Sara Buzurovic, Manuela Karin Knaut, Rocket & Wink and Isaiah Winters, PCM 6 cements its position as a vibrant, art‑first publication where each spread is an immersive piece of visual dialogue.
