---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2007 17:27:31 -0500 From: robert cheatham <zeug1@earthlink.net> To: artnews@pd.org, word-l@pd.org Subject: New Perforations call for material: THE INHUMAN/...SPIRIT Public Domain Inc. announces the call for submissions for Perforations 31: * The Inhuman: Anticipations, Thresholds, Technics - Special Effects of the Spirit. * Any mention of 'spirit' is sure to induce a spirited discussion with us moderns, unless we believe there is a New Age a'coming (and which is perpetually on the way)-- or not -- and we've already made up our mind. But everyone likes a good supernatural horror flick, a good ghost story, or a good performance artist who spazzes out or the latest paranormal reports of sprites, spirits, the possessed, ufos, Virgin Mary apparitions, crop circles, the latest Halo 3.0 release, and much more. At the same time, the technical apparatus which surrounds us, enters us, comes from us, makes us doubt what the 'human' is and what the limits and borders of that may be and whether a technical civilization is on the way to crossing the Nietzschean bridge to ... something else. this issue of perforations is interested in the 'something else' that folds into the 'spirit.' For a more considered exploration of the Perf 31 problematic please go to: http://www.pd.org/Perforations/perf31/index-perf31.html Node 31 of Perforations will entertain your multi-media contributions. videos, hyper-texts, articles, reviews. Deadline: April 2008 Thank you for your consideration.. senior editor: Robert Cheatham - zeug@pd.org media editor: Chea Prince - chea@pd.org technical editor: Jim Demmers - jdemmers@pd.org * The two most recent perforations issues are: Hauntology [P 29] http://www.pd.org/Perforations/perf29/perf29_index.html and Hut Tech / Bare Life [P 30] http://www.pd.org/Perforations/perf30/index-perf30.html General Perforations index: http://www.pd.org/HTML/perforations-index.html Other Public Domain services, including list serves and podcasts: http://www.pd.org Perforations and FORT! / da?
