Entropy

BACKGROUND
<source/code> is a think tank operating within Cloud Connect, a design practice and creative studio that has been involved with Entropy since the early stage, collaborating on projects such as the design of Entropy+ and the Entropy Paris Pop-Up, among others.

The purpose of <source/code> is to carry forward research and curatorial activities in the fields of design, architecture, fashion, technology, and contemporary culture. It is our belief that curated media is of major importance—now more than ever, in this environment oversaturated with information—and it is our goal to resurface the building blocks of yesterday for the thinkers and makers of tomorrow.

VISION
The think tank has been conducting creative research and setting up internal archives since the beginning of the year and is now ready to begin working on the first series of bi-monthly publications, aiming to release its first issue in October. Every installment will explore a topic from different angles, drawing links and parallels between the fields mentioned above, presenting research and curated media with the intent of sparking new thoughts and ideas in the reader. The format will be image-focused but may also include essays, interviews, and time-based media such as video, music, or interactive works.

<source/code> editorial will be digital-first to facilitate access to as many people as possible, but there will also be a limited number of printed copies to accompany each issue.

FUNDING
The financial support that is being asked is 6 ETH, which would be enough to cover an entire year of publications, and would be used to secure the archival material that is needed, support research and curatorial efforts, design and production of the magazine, and setting up a website to keep <source/code> publications accessible to everyone.
