In its fifth year, Lucid is now ready to receive submissions from first gen students and staff at all California community colleges, Cal States, and UCs. Our theme for this issue invites us to think about the many ways our bodies occupy space, fill time, confront oppression, navigate disability, create life, and find joy.
Some (not ALL!) ideas for art or writing you might explore include:
Email me: To discuss ideas/ask for guidance or if you have any other questions about submissions, reach out to Rachael: collins2@uci.edu.
We will take up to 3 submissions from each contributor in whatever form of creative expression they like (see below for some ideas).
CREATIVE NONFICTION/LITERARY JOURNALISM/PERSONAL ESSAYS: We encourage the use of multiple modes of expression: illustration, recording, photographs, etc.
ETHNOGRAPHY/AUTOETHNOGRAPHY/FIELD NOTES: Note: to be considered, all work involving other subjects must include consent forms.
POEMS, PLAYS, SHORT STORIES, MIXED-GENRE WRITING
RECORDING (AUDIO OR VIDEO): Can be an interview, oral history, a podcast, a monologue, sound art. Feel free to include a written description of the context for the piece. Note: to be considered, all work involving other subjects must include consent forms.
DRAWING, PAINTING, COLLAGE/MIXED MEDIA, PHOTOGRAPHY: Please include titles and any relevant captioning or other description you would like to include
WEIRD STUFF: what does or can function as artistic expression is bigger than the above list.
