Dense Interns Get It Done! Introducing our new cohort of summer interns: Grace, Jess, Rece, Serena, and Tyna. Our team is hard at work on our upcoming issue exploring surprising stories inspired by the Paterson Silk Strikes of 1913. From graphic design to editorial, our summer interns will grow as storytellers over the next two months. Learn more about each of our stellar interns! 👇👇👇 ⭐️ Editorial Intern Grace Rocker is a born-and-raised New Yorker who spent holidays riding on NJTransit to visit her grandparents. After graduating from Princeton University, Grace is thrilled to be back in the Garden State to cultivate stories with local changemakers. ⭐️ Jess Acosta, in their senior year at Montclair State University, hails from Harrison NJ. They are studying Visual Communication Design and in the role as graphic design intern, they’are interested in all the different forms that storytelling can take in the visual media space. ⭐️ Social Media and Stockist Intern Rece Anton is a Montclair NJ native and a Bryn Mawr College Owl. She’s passionate about bringing stories from “the great state of New Jersey” to readers around the US, and the world. ⭐️ Serena DiDio grew up in Chatham NJ and is entering her final year as a sociology student at Barnard College. She likes to think she brings a Jersey attitude wherever she goes, including Dense. ⭐️ Website Management and Editorial Intern Tyna Davis hails from Bloomfield, NJ. Even though she’s a Howard University Bison, she’s forever proud of her New Jersey roots and excited to help Dense reach new heights. *This message is brought to you by the Dense interns. #summerinterns #storytelling #printisnotdead #summerofdense #densemagazine #nj #newjersey #njiscomplicated #mentoring #culturalintelligence

What if America's most densely populated state is a sign of how we got here + where we're headed? Exploring new futures.
About us
What if America's most densely populated (and reviled) state holds answers to our world's challenges? Dense is a ten-issue magazine that ripples across ten milestone events in New Jersey's past and future, daring to redefine design's role in a future that's messy and equitable, and breaking form with design publishing as we know it. We’re launching Dense to flip design on its head for a broader audience, and show just how interconnected things like culture, education, public space, history, politics, and environmental justice really are. New Jersey and its global counterparts see their fair share of experimentation while operating in the shadows of major cities like New York and Philadelphia, and we think the densest state in the US offers a unique portal to make sense of design's role within an ever more complicated future. In 148 full-color pages, each issue clusters essays, interviews, visual stories, fictional accounts, and tasty inserts around an event that pushes and pulls our readers in surprising directions, and leaves them smitten with our state’s spin on design. Our debut issue unpacks the opening day of the New Jersey Turnpike, and nine issues later, we conclude with what was deemed the state's most radical project that never happened. What connects all ten issues are thoughtfully crafted contributions with a dash of our editorial secret sauce, bound into something beautiful to cherish for years to come. Dense will feature original works by celebrated and emerging contributors both in and out of state. Those who are already in the design space and those who've never considered themselves designers. We'll also share archival material that's presented in a new light, adding to each issue's speculative, "what if" voice. Pre-order exclusive offers through our Kickstarter here: http://kck.st/3hYmuQa
