OtherZine #29 Call for Proposals

The Fall issue of OtherZine #29 will be published in early September 2015!

unnamed

Proposals are due July 1, 2015.

A proposal can include (but certainly is not limited to) a description, outline, incomplete draft, schematic, or other articulated brainstorm. If you already have something written or published, that’s great, too. Please note that, while writing a proposal is not required for submitting an article or other piece of writing, it is highly recommended.

 

Selections for the September issue will be made by July 15th, 2015.

Final versions *of selected submissions* are due August 15, 2015.

We suggest 1000-2000 words for any written work, although please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have something else in mind…We are open to suggestions for projects as yet unimagined!

 

At this time we are unable to pay for any contributions.

Please direct all proposals, submissions, and related inquiries to:

otherzine@othercinema.com

Thank you!

 

A little more about OtherZine

OtherZine is the semi-annual webzine of Other Cinema, microcinema extraordinaire for experimental film, “live cinema”, and video art in San Francisco’s Mission District. Whether avant-garde or engagé, OtherZine’s emphasis is on the radical subjectivities and sub-cultural sensibilities that find expression in marginalized cinematic genres, media archaeological efforts, as well as contemporary intermedia hybrids. We encourage cinema-related writings and artist projects that support these endeavors and other explorations in media culture: articles, essays, interviews, reviews (art, books, media, events), rants, videos, illustrations, images, and other!

Current and past issues are available at: http://www.othercinema.com/otherzine/
