/As you might recall, I'm working with G.M.H. to produce a literary journal hosted on Tor, called The Torist. We put out a call a while back and received some submissions. But we've also had some technical problems (setting up a Tor hidden service and Globaleaks install, namely) so we want to extend the deadline... / *Call for Submissions: The Torist (a new literary journal hosted on Tor): NEW DEADLINE OCTOBER 1 * http://thetorist.tumblr.com/ — Clear Web Version http://toristinkirir4xj.onion/ — Tor Version http://toristfgqiroaded.onion — Globaleaks Anonymous Submission System The Torist is a new online journal, planned for a biannual release, which is dedicated to deepening the relationship between technology and the humanities. In particular, we are interested in how electronic communication intersects with communities (artistic, political, and beyond). Working on the premise that all activism is stifled by pervasive surveillance, the Torist is hosted both on the clearnet and as a Tor hidden service. In order to submit, your work need not address these ideas directly (though that, too, is welcome); rather, we are more interested in creating a community around and a greater awareness of technologies designed to make excessive data-gathering impossible. In this direction, the Torist is receiving submissions of fiction, non-fiction, poetry, reviews, and artwork. Content creators retain all rights to their work and may do with it as they please. Everyone is free to reproduce content from this site for any non-commercial purpose; we ask only that you credit the content creators. You can contact us via email or XMPP at torist@riseup.net. If you use PGP email encryption, you can find our public key here. Our PGP fingerprint is: 7870 8D6F 687C 82EE 9140 FBF5 2A37 AFAC 9449 E214 Our OTR fingerprint is: F617A0C4 318FAF44 565D5C7E 1F7A2897 E91DB601 Submission Guidelines: What to Submit———— Prose submissions should not exceed 4000 words, though there can be a degree of flexibility, for instance if your work is exceptional or is suitable to be serialized. Prose submissions may encompass fiction, non-fiction, and reviews. Non-fiction could include a broad range of material, for instance journalism, essays and op-eds. With works of fiction, we are less concerned about genre and more about whether the work strikes us as insightful, exciting, forward-thinking, and enjoyable. Reviews could deal with (but need not be limited to): – books or other publications – films – music – technologies – websites (especially in the deep web) – events (technology conferences, art exhibitions) Poems should not exceed five pages in length, though there may be exceptions made for outstanding work. Visual artwork will be used on the cover and for illustrations throughout the issue. Submissions can encompass most formats which can be sent electronically including photography, graphic design, audio recordings, video pieces, and photographs of physical works such as paintings, drawings, and sculptures. We would also be interested in sequential art such as comics. How to Submit——— We have two main ways of submitting: by email at torist@riseup.net or through our Tor-based GlobaLeaks submissions site http://toristfgqiroaded.onion. If you use PGP email encryption, please make use of our public key. We accept most file types. If we are unable to open a file, we will contact you if possible and ask for an alternative. For written work, it is fine either to attach the file or to put it in the body of the email. You may publish under any name you wish, provided it’s not exceptionally tasteless (for example containing needless slurs). If you do not provide us with a name, we will simply publish you as Anonymous. If you have a preference please let us know by putting it in the document containing your work, in an email, or in the “Full description” box in the GlobaLeaks submissions form. Providing a name is completely optional. When to Submit———- The deadline for the inaugural issue is *OCTOBER 1 2015*
