Idea:Nimbus is a physical artifact and a web museum of original poetry, prose, photography, painting and music. It follows the structure of nimbus.watch, which featured key artists working together in a "scene,” traces of this scenius nimbus seeks to capture in appearance of works together.Impact:<ul><li>REVIVAL OF THE PRINTED SACRED OBJECT</li><li>REVIVAL OF THE COLLABORATIVE ARTISTIC COMMUNITY</li><li>REVIVAL OF CRAFT and EFFORTFUL ARTIFACTS</li><li>EXPLORATION ON URGENT VECTORS</li></ul>Growth:We're looking to learn how to use a riso printer and explore other book making and marking techniques to instantiate the physical, portable museum as a book object.

Project Proposal: Nimbus #2

Nimbus is a physical artifact and a web museum of original poetry, prose, photography, painting and music.

Released in 2020, Nimbus # 1 is a collection of work on intimacy, distance, and closeness.In the first call, Nimbus accepted all media, including literary (poetry, prose, experimental); visual; time-based arts (song, film); and immersive arts.Rather than a rigid definition of "art," Nimbus seeks matter that exists in excess: work done out of passion, protest, or unanswerable necessity. Drafts, ephemera, black sheep all encouraged.A Nimbus issue is not a finished product but a processional structure that nudges the pieces towards their future versions.For writers, Nimbus is an opportunity to be in revisive dialogue.For readers, it is a site of curated reading–a place for discovery of connection and meaning between pieces, across genres.
