Just a quick note and a little self-promotion. The reMODELmag site has changed a little (might change entirely if the name of the magazine changes - which it might but I nonetheless will keep this bloggeration going here). Updated it with a little about and some pretty pictures. Simple non-offensive layout.

Also, we’ve decided to forgo a preview issue that might have been rushed out last night in place of having a fully operational Death Star (read: issue) by September 1st. So look out for that bad boy.

Also, submissions are accepted. Please put in by August 15th. That would make my life a lot easier and less stressful.

Still unsure how to spell that doosy (dooesy?  doesy? dosey?) of a word there, but whatever. Having finished the tome that is Infinite Jest, I can now hopefully get into the important things in life: the perfect nacho recipe.

Or this magazine and blog. To update you on the process, I’ve been writing around finding out about grants and trying to get interest up from friends and fellow thinkers of my age (okay, just from friends). Here’s some things you that might make an appearance in the coming issue:

-A roundtable discussion of Infinite Jest focusing on the implications it has (and has had) on fiction and the opinions Foster Wallace propogates within the book
-An article discussing the homogenization of urban space and the urban idea of home.
-Reports from Chicago and L.A. on some thing or another.
-FASHION SPREADS!!!!
-Some green ideas to save money and the environment.
-A high finance article (get it? it’s a play on high fashion or high art. Well, it’ll come to you. It’s okay if you don’t find it funny now.)
-Reviews and discussions of films, art, music, and other fun things.

And hopefully more. Or maybe not. If I can get all that together that might be a pretty good issue.
