Support the Unconventional.

I came across notice of a new magazine today called Diffusion. Its editor, Blue Mitchell, has this to say about its purpose:

Diffusion is born out of a longing to create something palpable as well as enticing, educational, and hopefully entertaining. I have a keen interest as an artist - and art consumer - in photographers that push the boundaries and limitations of traditional photographic processes. Although I surround myself with artwork from photographers that push these boundaries, I have discovered, outside of physical exhibitions and online, that this type of photographic work is underrepresented in the modern photography magazine.

Diffusion is a compilation of articles, interviews, and images from artists and image-makers that coincide with this purpose. The magazine will be published annually, however, we will be producing special editions periodically that will focus more on specific themes and will not be limited to the photographic arts.



Looks very interesting to me, and I'm all for mainstream magazine access to unconventional photography (and other arts). Have a look at the site and see if you might be interested in helping this fledgling mag stay in production. I eagerly anticipate the arrival of my first issue.

I don't know the creators of this magazine or have any financial interest in it, I just thought it was a great idea and hope to help get it some more notice, even if it turns out I only have a reader-reach of about 3 or 4 people. :)
