The Independent School of Art would like to invite you to submit work for consideration in the 2nd issue of its publication SATELLITE. Each issue of SATELLITE revolves around one person. This person is not revealed by name, but through a series of responses to the many aspects of their life.
The publication is structured as follows: A person, real or fictional, is chosen as the central conceptual hub. Only topics directly related to this person (their occupation, nationally, particular interests, historical events, cultural significance, collaborators and friends, etc.) will be the subjects for submitted materials. The person's name will not be included in the issue.
The subject of this upcoming issue is JIM HENSON. This means that any subjects directly related to Jim Henson are up for consideration. --these include but are not limited to: childhood development, puppets, latch key kids, fine sports cars, John Denver, special guests, beards and stashes, dark fables, roommates who live in one room, neighborhood characters, geographic speciation, extreme personality types, morality tales, inter-species relationships, variety shows, bacterial pneumonia, letters and numbers, anthropomorphism.
At this point we just need a proposal for content. Pick a Jim Henson related satellite topic (from our list or your research) and tell us how you would approach it. A short paragraph description of content would be best. If you have other writing or image samples of previous work please include them. None of the material need be related to art, and none of the material can directly speak of Jim Henson.
We encourage all forms of writing: including essays, fiction, interviews, letters, reviews, etc. Short articles (750-1000 words) long articles (1500-3000 words). We also will accept images (image folios), including photography, drawings, prints, image/text projects, etc. This eventual 50 page, four-color, perfect bound issue will be distributed for sale in local and out-of-town bookshops, art venues, and online through our website. This will be a thoughtful, well-edited, reader-friendly publication.
DEADLINE: Friday March 18th is the last day we can accept proposals for articles.
Please email submissions or questions to [email protected]
We look forward to reviewing your submissions.
