BLUEPRINT

Ever so often, when silence reigns, in the quiet moments between breaths, life speaks to us through its intricate details. It

lies in the streaks of a painter’s brushes, the strings of a writer’s words, the cryptograph of a technician’s inventions, and the

canvas of an architect’s scrupulous designs.

Behind every magnificent work is the stellar mind of its creator; a mere thought becomes an idea, an idea transforms into a

plan, and a plan materializes into a blueprint.

The modern age we see today is a by-product of blueprints sketched together—whether it be visible structures or abstract

edifices. From technological advancements to society’s belief system and the status quo, in one way or another, we contribute

to scaffolding its foundation.

But where do we draw the line when the creations that humans made turn into something that threatens the very existence

of their creators?

In such cases, we, too, can tear it down into debris.

With the series of breakthroughs that unfolded over the years, FORWARD Publications presents to you its meticulously

crafted semestral magazine with a concept that scrutinizes the grid system and dimensions that make up a blueprint.

Inside the first few pages of this magazine are the opinion articles that delve closely into how the political landscape is

architected by the officials who vowed to serve us; the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its threat that ties back to the

industrial blueprint; and the mold that holds the framework of our society.

We also have feature articles that magnify the notable contrivances that showcase the artistry and talent of human

minds—spanning from innovative inventions, architectural designs, and movies that are ahead of their time.

Naturally, we unravel University-based reports that construe the blueprint of the Josenian community, understanding its

scope outside the four corners of a classroom.

Through this magazine issue, we urge our readers to open their eyes and be vigilant of life’s ebb and flow. To deny the

asymmetrical structures of our reality that do not intercept with what we envision. To question whether our creations live up

to their mission of bringing comfort or do they open paths that bring about an imbalance of the universe’s nexus.

Our tomorrow clings upon the hands that sketch, design, and plot the construction of a blueprint. It boils down to which

structure they plan to build or break.

The future is now—and the future is ours to claim.
