Out ... on the streets (find it at the Grad Show and foyers and tabletops everywhere)
About ... evolving nature, understanding the world, biting ponies, and so much more
v.1, RISD’s graduate-student publication, launched in 2016 with a mission “to represent an interdisciplinary community of conversation that surfaces and documents ideas, themes, discussions, debates, work, and aspirations of graduate study while they are still fresh ... and contribute to the wider public discourse around art and design.”
v.1’s form and content were always meant to change (it’s always “volume 1”). It’s been a perfect-bound journal, a newspaper, and a website (volume-1.org). We’ve made podcasts, posters, and live publishing events. Next fall, it will change in a new way: it will become a publication by and for both graduate and undergraduate students.
Keep an eye out for calls for submissions in September; or if you can’t wait, stop by A&L or e-mail v1@risd.edu.
