Kanye West's Complex Cover by Bailee Wolfson
Pushing the boundaries once again, this time Kanye West is inspiring the use of advanced imaging technology on the new cover of Complex magazine.

Chris Milk, videographer and photographer behind the project, talks about the futuristic creation of the Complex photo shoot in an interview with Fast Company.
