We used to dream of going to the moon, explore the possibilities and technological breakthroughs of AI and virtual reality. Now these are the realities of today. We engage in Snapchat and Instagram filters and communicate within seconds all from the palm of our hand.
This past year has come with many challenges, opened doors, closed doors. It’s been a time of both invited and unwarranted space for many, a space to think, a space to adapt and a space to reimagine and we try to look on towards the future.
What would it feel like to hug someone and hold them close for the first time in a while?
What new jobs or technological advances will be created?
Your first gig?
What have you been dreaming about recently? What have you learnt?
What are you hopes for environmental change and racial equality?
Utopian future?
This issue is the blank slate to craft or re-create the narrative on your dreams including what's been holding you back and where you heart keeps being drawn to.
We are doing things a bit differently this time and opening up to video submissions as well as the usual: art, illustration, essays, poems, articles, graphics and photography.
Submission deadline: Sunday 9th May 2021
