The ResCollecTiVU magazine

ResCollecTiVU is an alternative bi-annual publication and performance series through the RCAH, MSU, and the surrounding community. Looking for dynamic, inventive, and provocative work of all mediums, including poetry, music, photography, theater, media art, video, sound constructions, spoken word art, graphics, dance, installations, paper play, webart, and sculpture.

The publication is open to faculty, staff, students, and community members. The above image is one of eight images submitted, in collaboration with Mark Sullivan for the Fall issue, under the sub category of: Digital History.

In this section we looked at what it means to digitize memories, collections, historical documents, photos, letters, or voices in an effort to preserve them and their stories. This section considers the question of documentary, what would and should we preserve, and why. Submissions may be a film, a comic, sound construction, physical memorabilia, poetry, photography, a script, or even a scene or dance to be performed about the concept or actualization of digital history.

The Fall Issue of the ResCollecTiVU is called "The Makers" and focuses on the empowerment of people and the significance of work that is done in a creative and engaged fashion. This is an opportunity to look at ourselves and our community as makers, and push beyond the accepted popular ideology of what it means to be an "artist" a "writer" a "photographer" and blurring the exact lines of the boxes in which we so often find these endeavors.
