TIRT

There’s a viral tweet thread by podcaster Shaan Puri that speaks of the metaverse being an inevitable time when the online world has more importance than offline. It’s alarming to say the least but the hopeful team behind The Irregulars Alliance is doing their part to slow this down, manifesting their love of print into a tangible and tactile publication when little else is happening IRL.

Earlier this year, they launched The Irregular Times, known more colloquially as TIRT, India’s first print art and design newspaper “for everyone”. LOVER caught up with managing editor Tarini Sethi and features editor Vasudhaa Narayanan two issues in, to talk all things publishing, working remotely and their quarterly labour of love.
