CALL for ENTRIES: In the Age of Social Media

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

CUISINE closeup

I have kept my word.   I am taking fewer pictures of my food in public.   You would be proud.  I am amazed at how often I’ve finished a dish before it occurred to me “I should have photographed that”.  Maybe I’ve just been too hungry by the time food arrives.  And, while my Insta feed is decidedly less interesting, my food IS warmer.  This next Call wants to know how social media has influenced YOUR work.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Colby-Sawyer College (New London, NH) for Photography in the Age of Social Media at the Marian Graves Mugar Art Gallery.  Academic shows are good for your resume.  I really like this one…

The Thanksgiving sea of brown food has passed.  Luckily, my family forgoes the turkey, dressing, gravy & rolls thereby missing out on a good portion of the brownness of it all. I crave color even in my food.  A star of this year’s menu was the beet & clementine salad.  Beets are plentiful year around due to how well they do in cold storage.  If you are one of those folks that swear they dislike beets, make a point to try them fresh roasted.  (Message me for a recipe.)  In the meantime, here’s a call that also craves color.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Incandescent (printed zine) for Issue Eleven.  I want to challenge you to find a way to work with color film.  Sometimes using your voice to speak a different way can lead to new opportunities.  You can do it…

The freezer saves dinner about two days a week in my house.  We purposefully cook more portions than we can eat and save the leftovers.  It started out as a way to send lunch with my kiddo for school, but it has become a dinner rescue regularly.  When you get busy and have forgotten to plan for dinner and live nearly a half hour from the closest grocery or restaurant, you’re grateful for frozen leftovers.  This next Call is not a leftover or frozen, but I did neglect to plan the publication more than a few days out from the deadline.  Sorry about that…

Practical 3D food printing exists.  years ago I made some clever segue using Star Trek’s food replicator as a the unthinkable –food printing.  And now, there is the Bocusini, which uses all-natural food cartridges to print solid-ingredient food sculpture.  The first use that pops to mind is EDIBLE, miniature, exact reproductions of human body scans for wedding cake toppers.  Not the first thing that popped into your mind? Is it just me? What a perfectly unreasonable, delightfully impractical application.  This next Call wants your artistic applications, practicality not required.  These calls are rare; don’t miss it…

Do you prefer boxes or bags in your pantry?  I like the structure of boxed pasta, beans & cereal, but I love the price of most things bagged.  I prefer not to store things in plastic, but I’m not convinced the process used to create cardboard is any better.  I own a lot of glass which inevitably involves breakage and the energy consumption involved in cleaning and/or sterilization. It can be difficult to distinguish the order from the chaos, but this Call offers us a second change.  Give it a shot…
