CASSETTE ZINE

@cassette-zine / cassette-zine.tumblr.com

VISUAL ART zine created in late August 2014. This page is not the actual zine.

The theme for Issue 9 is “INVISIBLE”. Visual artwork submitted can be work representing the literal meaning of this concept,

OR some metaphorical/figurative meaning of it, such as:

  • misrepresentation 
  • those who suffer in silence
  • blinding oneself to the problems of the world 
  • shutting oneself out from everyone 
  • being ignored/ostracized by those around oneself 

(and so on...) 

The deadline for submitting artwork for Issue 9 is Wednesday, July 27th.

THINGS YOU MUST INCLUDE IN THE EMAIL:

1. Your name. The name people address you by and your last name (example:Jane Doe), or the initial of the name people address you by and your last name (example: J. Doe).

2. The names of anyone who collaborated with you to create the work (if applicable)

3. The names of any people in photographs, UNLESS they are candid photographs of strangers. (if the models do not feel comfortable giving their full names, a first name and a last-name-initial will work just fine.)

4. The title(s) of your piece(s) (if applicable)

OPTIONAL THINGS TO INCLUDE:

1.  Brief description(s) of your piece(s).

2. What medium you used.

Submissions can be sent to: CassetteZine@gmail.com

see our guidelines for more info.

Read issue 8!

https://issuu.com/cassettezine/docs/cassette_zine_issue_8small

Submissions for Issue 8 are now officially closed! Thank you so much to those of you who submitted work! 

ANNOUNCEMENT

We will likely only be able to get started putting Issue 8 together sometime around the end of this month (due to busy schedules). Additionally, we have not quite received enough submissions just yet. So it seems logical for us to continue to take submissions until April 2nd (with leeway for differing time zones). Once again, work submitted for issue 8 does not have to fit any sort of theme or prompt. All work can be submitted to CassetteZine@gmail.com

So sorry about this delay. 🙁

Still Taking Submissions (due to a predicted delay in publication)

Hey, everyone!

We have recieved a decent number of works to feature, from artists from an impressive variety of places. However, because we know that we will unfortunately be delayed in compiling and publishing issue 8, we will still be taking submissions until march 8th. We generally feature everything that is sent to us (as long as it fits the guidelines, which it usually does anyhow).

Issue 8 does not have a theme requirement that pieces need to fit. So any work displaying any themes are welcome. (Keep in mind that certain “NSFW” things aren’t allowed by ISSUU, and it totally sucks. But as long as there isn’t any explicit nudity or sexual content, I think we’ll be fine!)

Submissions as usual can be emailed to CassetteZine@gmail.com

Physical Copies of Cassette Zine?

Hello, Lovelies. 

You may have noticed that the copies of the zine that are uploaded to ISSUU are not the best quality. We have to reduce the file size before uploading, because ISSUU won’t let us upload extremely large files unless we upgrade to one of the paid plans. However, we are considering having physical copies of the full resolution versions printed professionally and setting up an online store to sell them on. Anyone interested? Let us know!! <3 

Hello, I am interested in submitting my artwork to your zine but couldn't find an email to contact. How should I send my submission?

We look forward to receiving your submission(s)!

Just a friendly apology

I was delayed in compiling issue 7, because I am a college student, and last week, I had a lot of assignments that I needed to complete. However, I now have more time (and peace of mind), since certain pressing deadlines were met, so the zine will be out fairly soon! xx  

-Editor

Now accepting submissions for issue 7! The theme is “Haunting”. With halloween around the corner, the theme “Haunting” seemed fitting, but it doesn’t have to be halloween or horror related. So if you have any magazine-suitable visual art that embodies this theme in some way or another, we’d love to feature it!
