Link Editions: In My Computer
CALL FOR PROPOSALS 2015

The LINK Center for the Arts of the Information Age invites artists 
to submit proposals for its ongoing book series "In My Computer".

One's computer is a repository of valuable things that, for some 
reason, never went public: projects, drafts, short notes, private 
emails, unreleased interviews, unpublished texts, tales, poems, 
quotes, image or spam email collections, whatever.

If you think this content may be relevant or interesting also for a 
wider audience; if you think it may work well in book form, 
circulated digitally or printed on paper; the book series "In My 
Computer" may be the right jar for your jam.

"In My Computer" is a series of books collecting unpublished material 
available in your computer, produced by LINK Editions and circulated 
both in digital and printed form through the print-on-demand (POD) 
service Lulu.com. The book can take any shape compatible with POD's 
production and distribution standards.

LINK Editions is a publishing initiative of the LINK Center for the 
Arts of the Information Age. LINK Editions uses the print on demand 
approach to create an accessible, dynamic series of essays and 
pamphlets, but also catalogues and artist books. A keen advocate of 
the idea that information wants to be free, LINK Editions releases 
its contents free of charge in .pdf format, and on paper at a price 
accessible to all. Link Editions is a not-for-profit initiative and 
all its contents are circulated under an 
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0) 
license.
