matzine#8 : call for submissions!

Posted in Announcements by esmefieldhouse on March 1, 2011

Pinch Punch, first of the month. The hourglass issue caused quite a stir, now it’s time to get your thinking caps on for matzine#8:

Domestic Exotic entails an uncovering of the unfamiliar in the familiar, which causes a sudden shift of comfort in our surroundings [positive or negative]

Consider the ground as tightly packed substrata of forgotten stories or hollow, filled with colliding conversations between inhabitants, past + present

There’s a river below the road waiting to be found – perhaps the winding path, not the straight line, will take you there

I urge you to actively seek out these hidden truths… Let’s make #8 an unpredictable archive!

Deadline for submissions: 01 april 2011 [playful offerings encouraged in the air of april fools]

story, drawing, collage, photograph, essay, map, statistic, poem, the list goes on….. it’s open-ended [pick +/- mix]

prepare your submissions in a5 portrait, or double a5 spread + send to submissions.matzine@gmail.com

matzine #07 !!! call for submissions

Posted in Announcements by seán on December 31, 2010

hot on the heels of the stunning matzine 06 edition, you [and everyone else] are invited to think, question and create on the subject of time & its representation.

the hourglass, with its recessing sands is symbol apropos to our perception of time.

the movement of the sands from bulb to vertex to bulb is a measured, allegorical representation;

an animated diagram of parts, of a harmony between subject, form and function.

how else is time’s torrent made apparent?
