[Fwd: Fwd: Scale Journal 8/9 Call For Participation + Guest Editor Joel Swanson + http://scale.ucsd.edu/]

>+ please forward +
>
>This email is a call for submissions from theorists and practitioners in
>the following fields: Art, Architecture, Communication, Comparative
>Philosophy, Computation, Computer Audio, Critical Theory, Design,
>Literature, Media (New and Old), Music, Performance, and Software
>Design.

>SCALE (http://scale.ucsd.edu) would like to encourage you to submit
>"work" for its upcoming online-only August & September issue. SCALE is a
>non-profit journal that explores new modes of production and
>dissemination based on open-source and networked communities.
>
>The theme for the August/September SCALE is APOCALYPSE. As we look
>forward to the coming election in November, it seems prudent to reinvest
>ourselves in exploring the possibilities of our own self-destruction.
>Often rooted in religious and science-fiction genres, apocalyptic themes
>have proven fruitful as a framework from which to question our
>collective hopes, fears, and concerns, on a local and universal scale.
>In your submissions, feel free to explore and exploit your personal
>imaginations of APOCALYPSE as a loose starting point for your
>submission. Please keep in mind that SCALE likes to abide by terms
>obliquely, and as such encourages all types of submissions, from dirty
>sketches and musings, to polished images and essays.
>
>Initially formulated within the graduate programs of the Visual Arts at
>the University of California, San Diego, SCALE was created by Jon
>Phillips (http://www.rejon.org) and Patrick W. Deegan
>(http://www.pwdeegan.org) as a strategy of response to a growing
>interest in developing Open Source communities across the globe. SCALE
>is a monthly publication living in both PDF print and online PDF/WIKI
>format.
