Quarterly online magazine focusing on creative process & method across artistic pursuits. https://linktr.ee/vitalminutiaeq
Hello all. I am so sorry for the radio silence the past couple of months. I'll get to the point, especially since this is probably not a surprise to many of you, but I have decided to put VMQ on indefinite hiatus.

Hello all! Apologies for all the radio silence...we've had some difficulties with getting the first issue together, both technical & brain-wise. We're trying to get through them as best we can & appreciate everyone's patience in the meantime ❤️ we want to get this issue up & out!!

Haven't posted basically for ages due to stress & illness, BUT we are still alive, still going, & still open for submissions! We want essays, vents, rants, sonnets, reviews, interviews, peer reviews - anything that tells us about the details of your (non-writing) art!
December 23, 2023 at 12:37 AM
Friday reminder that we are OPEN for submissions for Issue Two! We want any & all of your pieces about creativity! Issue Two is themed around non-writing art forms & we want to see & hear what YOU have to show & say about it! Check out the link in our bio for guidelines & sub forms!

As we reopen submissions for Issue Two, we would like to draw attention to a new addition to the submission form. For both visual & written subs, we have added a box regarding AI, asking that submitters acknowledge & state that their art is of their own making, w/little to no AI.

We are VERY pleased to announce that we have finally caught up! All responses to Issue Two submissions pertaining to writing have been sent out.

This also means that submissions for Issue Two are once again OPEN for any work that is NOT focused on the art form of writing! Woo!

Apologies for the delay on re-opening submissions & sending out responses, VMQ HQ has had a sick kiddo since Saturday which has obviously been the priority for our time & attention. Will try to get things done as soon as we can, & keep y'all posted!

If you ever want to get lost in a fascinating archive of consumer aesthetic categories you forgot how clearly you remembered, or find some granular era-specific textural inspiration, the Consumer Aesthetics Research Institute is an incredible rabbit hole: cari.institute/aesthetics

The avian homeplanet has permanent sea ice at both of its poles. In the north the dominant ecosystem on these shifting ice 'dunes' is globe moss, conglomerate balls of plants and photosynthetic worms.
