Apologies for cross-posting. Please circulate
Organdi Quarterly (www.organdi.net <http://www.organdi.net/> ) is a peer-reviewed interdisciplinary journal. It is free and international. Organdi Quarterly focuses on cultural issues of our time, is open to all forms of creation (painting, photography, cinema, video, music, writing...), and proposes a criticism on the evolution of societies.
We welcome submissions for Issue #9: archives / filing (Summer 2007): deadline 15/06/2007
In the context of the constantly accelerating pace of our lives, progress in terms of storage capacity, editing, and publishing has expanded the possibilities for filing and the constitution of archives. A tool to explore and understand the past, archives have also become an essential element of self-definition for people. Citizens and communities build their own archives consumers store personal memories (emails, photos etc); and contemporary art, in a search for intelligibility and history, uses the archive as a material and a site of inquiry.
This special issue seeks to investigate the contemporary need for archives. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: archives as sites of inquiry for history, critical theory, or anthropology; archives as a source of inspiration or political protest; the legal and political issues of filing; the technological use of filing devices and software.
As usual, other contributions unrelated to the theme of the issue will be considered for the following sections of Organdi Quarterly:
Letters to the Editors,
Espace Libre (articles, interviews, documents),
Books, Music, Cinema & the Arts (cultural reviews),
Out of Frame (exhibitions).
etc.
Deadline: 15/06/2007
