Facilitator- Patrick Sage

Mission statement- We seek to publish new writing which crosses linguistic, cultural, and religious boundaries- including polyglot texts and experimental works which reflect the experience of currently marginalized people and communities. In the course of our development, we hope to pro-actively straddle the divide between traditional and new media, closed and open reception models, private and social metanoia- i.e writing as Jungian 'self repair' versus that species of inter-subjective hermeneutics which uniquely yields an ecumenical call to repentance to the whole of Society- while keeping faith with our foundational maieutics in toilet graffiti and forging notes from mommy to get off gym.
