Subject: Static 05 Metamorphosis - Call for Contributions
Dear friends,
We are attaching the new Call for Contributions for Static's issue 05 on the
theme of /Metamorphosis/.
Please feel free to forward it to anyone you think might be interested.
Many thanks,
Irini Marinaki + Konstantinos Stefanis (Members of Editorial Board)
Call for contributions for Static Issue 05- Metamorphosis
/Nec manet sui similis res: omnia migrant, omnia commutat natura et vertere
cogit/ (Lucretius, De Rerum Natura, V. 828)
The fifth issue of Static invites critical and creative contributions on the
theme of Metamorphosis. The mutability of things is a theme that has gripped
people from the ancient world to the modern. This issue of Static will focus
closely on the changing forms in which change of form is thought about and
represented in literature, myth, and arts. Metamorphosis is the vehicle by
which different cultures think concretely about the relations between form and
time, fusion and undoing, the singular and the multiple, the absolute and the
intermediary. Among other things, metamorphosis refers to the transformations
of the body effected in body practices, cosmetic, ritual and sexual.
We invite all kinds of submissions but we particularly welcome contributions in
non-textual media, be it photographic images, art projects, animation, short
film, or other media. We would like to ask you to contact the editorial board
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) in the first instance to discuss the format and other
technical details before you submit your work.
The deadline for submissions is April 15, 2007.
Issue 05 is edited by Professors Steve Connor & Colin MacCabe.
