Lumen

31.05.2011

There is a new, unclassifiable journal. The name says it all or it says all that may be said: Lumen. The preface by Edwin Mak and Matthew Flanagan puts it like this:

We have named this journal Lumen as it appeals by metaphor to the notion of discovery, or inspiration: a gesture of clarity in turning toward illumination, just as physicists measure units of luminous flux by the same name. Our interest is in ideas and the care of their crafting — at times, in admiration of such efforts in themselves — transversal to aesthetic disciplines and historical origins.

The first volume is dedicated to forests. Go here.
