there is lots of flexibility to utilize the lenses of this issue to explore themes that personally matter to you and create work that feels fulfilling. engaging with specific political and social themes is encouraged, particularly around living outside of restrictive structures, connecting with past and future generations, and imagining alternative uses for technology. you might find great inspiration in drag, club kids, street art, punk, cabaret, afro-futurism, surrealism, and countercultural movements in general.

reviving old ways of life for a changing world

"keep on keeping on"

thriving within broken and failing systems

hedonism and absurdity coexisting with seriousness and grief

reimagining post-apocalyptic and steampunk

transformation of self paralleling transformation of landscape

meta-reflection about the role of art, fashion, and identity in counterculture and resistance

picturing better directions for technology
