Venting Re. In. Vented.
It is with such great pleasure that we
introduce to you not Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely
Hearts Club Band but our spanking new publication – Spiracle Journal – as important to us as the
aforementioned album must have been to the Beatles.
Much
of our excitement stems from the idea of creating a different kind of journal than the ones we are used to seeing
– something alive and kicking. There are several tiers to our endeavor – the
website itself, the actual journal and a Facebook group.
On
the website itself, we co-editors
– Wrexie Bardaglio, Emeniano Acain Somoza, Jr. and Barbara
Moore – keep a running journal of our thoughts and observations in the
form of prose
as well as poetry. We invite you all to join us as members and follow our
activities – enriching
our journal entries by adding on to them
in the comment areas provided.
This brings us to the publication itself
– Spiracle Journal. You may be wondering
how we chose our name? It was originally the
brainstorm of Emeniano, as was the
initial concept for the journal. To
use his words “I wanted something clinical and
scientific to “metaphorize” the all too obvious breathing problem
of the creative collective.” Since
a spiracle is a respiratory aperture, the
name fit.... more
