I'm looking for an advanced example of layout designing with ConTeXt? I've checked reference manual and few another docs from contextgarden, but they show only simple, elementary things. I'm interested in layouts that contains a lot of graphics and doesn't look like mathematical textbooks. And I need to know how to make them efficiently with ConTeXt.
Seeing complete code of something that looks like magazine or cookbook would be great help in learning.
For example, how to obtain master-page mechanism (applying of defined layouts to selected pages or selected parts of content) with ConTeXt?
Or another, but similar question, I can change font like this:
\starttypescript [myface1]
\definetypeface [myface1] [rm] [serif] [bob] [default]
\definetypeface [myface1] [ss] [sans] [alice] [default]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [myface2]
\definetypeface [myface2] [rm] [serif] [bob2] [default]
\definetypeface [myface2] [ss] [sans] [alice2] [default]
\stoptypescript
{\switchtobodyfont[myface1,12pt]
bla bla
...bla}
{\switchtobodyfont[myface2,10pt]
even more bla bla...
...bla}
But can I select pages (odd, even, 11-26, or another combination) and make them to use defined typescript/typeface?

You are looking for examples with a lot of graphical elements, so you probably want to take a look at
The ConTeXt manuals
This page on the ConTeXt Garden wiki accumulates all the manuals which exist for ConTeXt. What is more important is that the sources for all the manuals can be accessed online: http://context.aanhet.net/svn/manuals/ This probably comes closest to what you are looking for. In principle you could copy these layouts and plug in your own content.
