RECLAIM the MIND
Call for Submissions
Friction Research Isssue #4, Spring 2011

Deadline: January 31 2011

"When the possibility of expressing social reform vanishes, time has
come to change our 'Minds'"

Reclaim the Mind is a transmedial collaborative initiative exploring empty
spots in the human mind by:

- occupying the area between 'reality' and 'truth',
- re-using forgotten (collective) memory-spaces,
- connecting mental processes with physical spaces,
- rewriting, tearing apart, scratching and stretching our lived
environment in an effort to liberate our ursurpated sensibilities.

Reclaim the Mind reclaims the idiomatic resources, currently abused by the
'Creative Industries' and jeopardized by a majority of 'National
Governments', and will intentionally break seperations between established
cultural and political domains.

Reclaim the Mind aims to protect the incomprehensible treasure of mankind,
threatened by:

Censorship, Territorization, Mapping, Propaganda, Misconduct, Betrayal,
Mediocracy, Occultism, Commercialized Education, Orthodoxy, Cultural Lobotomization, Zombie Politics

We invite artists, writers, academics to contribute to our call for works
by submitting works, which reflects upon 'Reclaiming the Mind', in a
broader sense, ranging from visuals, videos, musics, essays etc. to:
