DESCRIPTION:The interior is a repository for collections\, whether curated 
 as a body of work for a museum or the personal possessions of an 
 individual. Collections can be thematic\, nostalgic\, scientific\, 
 artificial and natural\, ranging in scale from large to small\, physical 
 to ephemeral\, critical or superfluous\, from the obviously curated to 
 seemingly random. Collections convey knowledge of heritage\, culture\, 
 society and evolution\, protecting specimens and objects of material 
 culture for generations to view. They allow for comparison between objects
  and create relationships between them where there were none. These can be
  viewed in large institutional museums that have not been without 
 contention with works pilfered from original sites. In juxtaposition\, 
 everyday objects are celebrated and curated in unexpected locations such 
 as the MmuseumM housed in a converted elevator shaft. As subject matter\, 
 collections can range from decorative to the obsessive\, or challenge 
 conventions to curatorial statements about truth and fiction as found in 
 the Museum of Jurassic Technology. The interior is the site for 
 collections which are given a descriptive and physical framework through 
 the lens of curators\, exhibition designers\, interior designers and 
 architects who set the stage for objects and viewers. Interiors: 
 Design/Architecture/Culture seeks submissions that address the topic of 
 collections. Submissions can take the form of essays\, design work\, 
 visual collections\, musings\, alternative interpretations to 
 collections\, all the while situating them within the broader context of 
 interiors. Emphasis will be placed on non-traditional content in order to 
 open up the opportunity for new insight on how collections are viewed and 
 interpreted.
