Here's an update on The Messenger, Independent Arts & Media's new quarterly newspaper. -- The first issue hit the streets in early September. It was a feast of words, images and ideas, all tied together by breezily opportunistic art direction and editing. We ended up adding an extra sheet to present the combined work of more than 20 contributors. You may still be able to find it around the Bay Area. If not, we have a few archival bundles at Indy Arts HQ in SF. East Bay folks, check with 21 Grand -- www.21grand.org/. -- Issue two, the Winter 2006 edition, is targeted for mid-December, and will address the theme of "Power & Democracy." Our editorial focus is "DIY plus manifesto," and in this regard we welcome fresh ideas and perspectives, project reports, eyewitness accounts, modest proposals, utopian daydreams, resource listings, illustrations, previews, features, how-to guides, documentation of creative interventions, etc. You can download a PDF of the writer's guidelines here: The Messenger * Winter 2006 Contributor Guidelines http://artsandmedia.net/iam/objects/Messenger_Winter_Guidelines.pdf -- If you'd like to advertise, sponsor or subscribe to The Messenger, please respond to this email, or call Indy Arts at 415/861-5302.
