    Volume 41 of <\/span>The Student Publication<\/span><\/i> peers into the undefined. Catalyzed by chaos, Volume 41 ‘Rusted Lace: Liminal Lands\u2019, examines contradictions, impermanence, speculation, ephemera and evolutions in a corroding landscape. What might we build from leaning into the liminal, the misunderstood, the fleeting. Contributors are invited to explore topics such as intersecting disciplines and the new space they create, beauty in the personal and power in presence, the form of unity and function of emergence, the role immateriality plays into our material world, changing and paradoxical spheres, mental, philosophical, physical, digital, psychological. We seek contributions that are intrigued by the human condition and the beauty in a creative and curious mind and collective. Through this publication we will revel in the contemporary, its fragile and fleeting structure, a matrix of minds constantly acted on by external factors, eroding into something new, life to the liminal, transitional and precarious world.<\/span><\/p>

    In Volume 41, we seek contributions that examine these intersections. Our systems, landscapes, bodies and minds are permeable to the contemporary predicaments and pollutants. How might one convert cultural chemicals into confronting materials? How do we see lines blurring and matter trickling into new spaces? Are these imagined realities becoming more potent, transfixing, in or out of reach. \u2018Rusted Lace: Liminal Lands\u2019 is a pond for reflection and space for conception, brewing from speculation, how might we envision the world? How do we understand it?<\/span><\/p>

    Through this publication, our contributors will confront questions such as:<\/span><\/p>

    1. What is our contemporary predicament, historical preoccupation or futuristic vision?<\/li>
    2. Where are intersections in disciplines we haven\u2019t approached?<\/li>
    3. How are you engaging with mediums around you, merging like streams or building beyond?<\/li>
    4. How do we negotiate space, time, objective and subjective?<\/li>
    5. What is designs evolving role in a changing landscape?<\/li>
    6. What is the processing of becoming history? What are our collective relics?<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

      This journal will have a print and an online component. The print will be circulated around NC State’s campus, not just the College of Design as well as surrounding universities in the Triangle. The online component will be open access, so as to be accessible to as many design students, educators, and practitioners as possible. Our goal is to generate a publication that presents contemporary and emerging perspectives on the ways we design, think, and learn. To that end, we invite a variety of submission types, including but not limited to:<\/span><\/p>

      • Case Studies<\/span><\/li>
      • Traditional Essays (Between 500-2000 words)<\/span><\/li>
      • Reviews and Critiques<\/span><\/li>
      • Personal Narratives<\/span><\/li>
      • short stories, letters, and poetry\/prose<\/span><\/li>
      • Interviews (Via Skype, email, or in person)<\/span><\/li>
      • Micro Essays (100-250 words)<\/span><\/li>
      • Shorter essay option for contributors (<\/span>reflections, inquiries, or introductory examinations)<\/li>
      • Visual Essays (Maximum of 20 images +captions)<\/span><\/li>
      • Illustrations<\/span><\/li>
      • Infographics<\/span><\/li>
      • Photography<\/span><\/li>
      • Videos (with clear transference to print-based medium)<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

        We welcome both new and republished work. If re-published, we ask you–the contributor- -to write a brief introduction that situates the contribution specifically within the current volume\u2019s theme. The word count is a maximum of 2000 words for texts, but we encourage a wide range of contribution lengths.<\/span><\/p>

        Audience<\/span><\/p>

        This is a publication aimed at design students, practitioners, and educators across disciplines.<\/span><\/p>

        We imagine that the topics and writings will also be compelling to anyone interested in the role of creative practice and process.<\/span><\/p>
