As some of you already know, I have been working on the launch of my art and literary magazine, Invisible Insurrection. The first call for submissions is online now, so please visit the site and consider sending your writing, photography, and art. The theme for the first issue is Architecture, Technology, & Surveillance After 9-11.

September 11th and its impact on urban pathologies, artistic form, and aesthetic sensibilities has been something of an obsession for me (wrote my critical thesis for graduate school on this, called Form Zero: Creating in Cultural Crisis - Art After 9-11), so receiving submissions for this first issue has been cathartic. Interesting works have already arrived in my inbox, and I am overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and support so many people have shown.

Dewi Faulkner will be joining me as a co-editor, as will my husband, Alan Murdock (who will handle visual art). Some other amazing people have offered to contribute as well, so who knows? Maybe this will become something big.
