This blog is associated with TheAlteredScalePress and the web journal

AlteredScale.com.

TheAlteredScalePress publishes short-run chapbooks of experimental writing of any sort—prose, poetry, fiction, nonfiction, hybrid.

AlteredScale.com's uniqueness, I hope, lies in the concept of mini-galleries. I organize webpages within the journal around a group of artworks that I see as implicitly working with some aspect of music—tone, harmony, disharmony, atonality, rhythm, and so on—in ways that can be fruitfully compared, both through similarity and dissonance and clatter. I should be clear: I am not looking for artwork that deals thematically with music. I am interested in the texture of music implicit in the works. My doing this makes me no more a shaper of the journal than any other editor. I am simply being explicit about my decisions.

In June, submissions for issue 4 will open. See bottom of this page. Submissions for blog are always open.
