ASPECT is looking for works for our next issue, title "Joie de
Vivre". Taking a pause from the serious and brooding content of
the last 4 issues, we are looking for works with a lighter
approach to their content.
ASPECT requests submissions must include a proposed artwork
documented on video and a proposed audio commentary by someone
other than the artist.
Please forward the following open call to any intersted parties.
Thank you.

Aspect Magazine is accepting submissions for the Spring 2005
edition of its biannual DVD publication titled "Joie de Vivre".
With the publication of Aspect Magazine, cutting-edge
experimental artists finally have a magazine that embraces their
mediums. Utilizing a multi-media format to showcase these works
of new media art, Aspect creates a museum experience in the home

Aspect’s fifth volume will feature artists working with humor,
levity and lightheartedness in their art. Work of any medium,
material or genre will be accepted, but SUBMITTED DOCUMENTATION
MUST BE ON VIDEO.
The staff of Aspect is asking curators, art critics, and members
of the contemporary art community to help assemble and comment
on works for the next issue by submitting a work of art on which
