For our second issue, we are planning to create our first PRINT issue exploring the idea of the archive in audio documentary. 

An archive can be anything from a historical record of sounds (a collection of recordings of animal sounds, a repository of found sounds from thrift store mixtapes, recordings of supreme court arguments, voicemails from a deceased family member…) to an assemblage of sound across time, even space. It can be both literal and expansive. 

We’re inspired by Saidiya Hartman, who works with what she has called “the scraps” of the archive.  “I work a lot with unknown persons, nameless figures, ensembles, collectives, multitudes, the chorus. That’s where my imagination of practice resides. That’s where my heart resides,” says Hartman.

Do you work with archival sounds? Do you consider your work itself an archive (or part of an archive)? 

Sound and audio can be ephemeral, both as we experience them in real time and in their digital incarnation. How does sound become archive, when does it become archive, and what does it mean to view audio documentarians as archivists?

We are interested in pitches for short essays (1500-2000 words) that bring us provocative ideas and surprising insights into the intersection of audio documentary practice and the idea of the archive.

#WritingOpportunity: MIT Technology Review is seeking pitches for an upcoming print issue. The theme is Creativity.

As always, the theme is a loose prompt. We're looking for pitches for longer pieces: narrative features, compelling investigations, essential profiles, and super-sharp essays. This call for pitches is mostly aimed at journalists, but if you're an expert with a strong idea, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Please note that we will likely be getting *a lot* of pitches on AI and creativity. This is not to dissuade you from pitching on that topic if you feel like you have a strong and specific idea. But we would especially welcome pitches on other subjects, ones that interpret the theme in other ways. Perhaps you have a story about a creative solution to a problem. Or about an area that impacts or is impacted by creativity.

The pitch deadline is Wednesday December 4. If you haven't seen it, please review our pitch guide (https://lnkd.in/ghW8vbiT). It includes general pitching advice, word rates, my e-mail address, and other helpful details.

Copytree is flexible on everything except our standards. And we need some top-flight technical writers more or less immediately to join as contractors.

The right sort of person is an experienced software engineer or technically-minded product manager, and also has a strong aptitude for and interest in writing. You'll work with editors who will help you get even better. We recognize this talent is rare, and we pay accordingly.

Copycats (that's our demonym) work either as some extra hours alongside a full-time job, or as a piece of the freelance puzzle. Location and hours are unimportant; reliability and a commitment to accuracy and excellence are non-negotiable. Paige Schwartz is an amazing leader who's as kind as she is sharp.

If this is you: https://www.copytree.io/join-us and please share with the people you know who could be very good at this.
