FROCK Magazine is an independently printed black and white publication released once a year—120 pages of photos, interviews, and erotica captured by photographer and director Eli Schmidt. Inspired by artist journals, vintage pornography, and independent zine culture, loud experimental typography spoke boldness and elegance into each feature story to cultivate a this platform for unbridled queer joy and celebration.
