Palimpsest is a biannual print publication run by graduate and professional students at Yale University, featuring visual art, nonfiction, fiction, poetry, and media related to performance, architecture and music. We are pleased to announce the call for submissions for our upcoming issue, organized around the theme of RISK. Calculated. Avoided. Craved. At once the threat of danger and the prospect of success, risk is the avenue you didn’t know you wanted to take, but will it lead you to breakthrough, momentary thrill, or disaster and pain? Risk compels and repels, promises and invalidates. How do we innovate and connect in a moment characterized by unknowable risk?

Submissions approaching this topic from a variety of perspectives, genres, and media, including sound and video, are welcome. Visit campuspress.yale.edu/palimpsest for submission guidelines and information regarding our past issues. Please send submissions to submissions.palimpsest@gmail.com by midnight April 15, 2017.
