Vectors is published twice a year. Most issues crystallize around key themes that highlight the social, political, and cultural stakes of our increasingly technologically-mediated existence. Every iteration of Vectors includes two types of projects. First, Vectors features commissioned multimedia works produced through collaboration between scholars and the Vectors creative team. These projects are selected through a rigorous fellowship competition that brings together recipients for a summer residency focused on both individual project development as well as on issues of scholarly research and publication in the digital era.

Vectors solicits completed works for each themed issue. These submissions are peer reviewed much as with traditional print journals. Upcoming themes and submission deadlines are as follows:

Reading: before March 15, 2010 (publication date: Spring 2010)
Noise: before May 1, 2010 (publication date: Summer 2010)

Earlier submissions are encouraged. Electronic submission is preferred: usc.vectors@gmail.com
All projects published in Vectors necessarily must in some way need to be online. We typically do not publish 'traditional' print essays. Further questions regarding submissions should be directed to the Editors.
