Founded by editor Phyllis Johnson, Aspen was one of the first multimedia magazine publications and was inspired by Aspen, Colorado's 1960s psychedelic paradox of spiritual and sexy. No. 9 - dreamweapon - features contributions from avant garde musician Christopher Lee, photographer Benno Friedman using images of Clint Eastwood, and poetry from musician John Cale.
