An update

Hi everyone. The latest on the postcard:

01. The postcard will be printed. I am currently awaiting cost estimates on the printing which I should get hold of today. Ideally we will want the postcard printed by the Loncon xmas party (10 December). The copy for the postcard will be posted on the blog for everyone to comment on.

02. The postcard will solicit submissions for the June 2008 issue of Static which we are proposing as the 'catastrophe' issue. These submissions may be academic papers, but they may also be one-liners, new aphorisms or anecdotes. The copy requesting submissions will be slightly, um, mysterious...and will request that submissions be sent to catastrophe@londonconsortium.com. The URL of the catastrophe website will also be printed on the postcard.

03. A website providing more explicit information about the next issue of Static will be created. More than likely the URL will be something like www.londonconsortium.com/catastrophe.

04. The 'catastrophe' issue of static will comprise a selection of our own essays alongside interviews, excerpts, submitted papers, art-works etc. A document outlining our proposal will be submitted next week Tuesday after class (when we can all discuss it).
