We accept submissions in the following categories:
To foster the connectivity between different mediums of expression, we have opened submissions for written and visual art in response to instrumental music. Every few months, we will publish a Dialogue Starter Issue: this will be an original, contributor-provided piece of instrumental music. Writers and artists will have until the end of the month following the airdate to submit a brand new poem/story/illustration/etc. inspired by the music. The musical artist will choose his/her/their favorite(s) that we will publish in a future issue, thus furthering the dialogue. The editors will occasionally choose their favorite(s) to publish as well. Below are the guidelines:
- General//Any subject//Year-Round
- Tapes From The Outside//Work in response to current events//Year-Round
- Dialogue Submissions//Work in response to a specific piece of music//Every few months
- (Audio)Chapbook Contest//Chapbook-length writing//May-July
