Interface Call for Ideas - Only one week to go!
Vibewire is looking for Australia's next generation of public thinkers to
contribute to Interface, our annual magazine anthology of new writing on
contemporary social, political and cultural issues.
If you're aged between 16 and 30 and have something innovative, insightful
and engaging to say, we want to hear from you.
Send us a proposal of no more than 500 words (shorter is fine) outlining your
idea, why it's important and why you're the best person to write about it.
Selected entries will be developed into longer, 1000-3000 word essays, articles
and stories with the guidance of some of the country's leading young writers.
The scope of what you can write about is almost limitless - just keep it
interesting. Submissions will be evaluated on originality, broad public appeal
and expression by a panel of judges including Julianne Schultz (
Griffith Review), Tony Moore (Pluto Press), Julia Baird (Sydney Morning
Herald) and Vibewire's Rachel Hills and Tom Dawkins.
Submissions close Monday November 20, at 5pm EST. For more information on the
project, what we're looking for and how to submit, go to
www.vibewire.net/interface.
This project is possible due to the support of the Foundation for Young
Australians, the Department of Family and Community Services and Indigenous
Affairs and UNESCO.
