STEP 1: IS THIS FOR YOU?
This media-rich journal has a permanent open call, beyond admitting curatorial work from the Editor-in-Chief and Guest Editors. Please see the TIMELINE for the special issue of 2026.
Each volume is intentionally small-scaled in terms of quantity – never in terms of quality. Rather than prescribing specific subjects and formats, the editorial process keeps interrogating the methods through which creative processes and spherical ways of thinking might advance knowledge. Such openness requires a delicate balance between the singularity of each author’s voice, the scientific transparency of their argument, and the clarity needed for a cross-disciplinary readership.
Authors whose work complies with the journal’s hybrid mission and scope are invited to submit original contributions, which should be preceded by expressions of interest.
STEP 2: EXPRESSING INTEREST
Every contribution begins with an expression of interest — a first signal of the work to come. You can send it (PDF) to liveinterfacesjournal [@] gmail.com . Please name the subject “Live Interfaces Journal – expression of interest”.
The PDF should include:
– 70 words Bio(s)
– 250 words Abstract
– Selection of bibliography
– Special technical requirements, if any
STEP 3: PREPARING YOUR PIECE
The authors work directly on the digital platform – which allows for the inclusion of audio, video, links, web-based interactive works and sonification/visualisation systems.
Getting started on the platform
Once you receive the submission credentials by email, you will be able to create and edit a WordPress “post” (actually a webpage with unique URL), through a simple graphical interface that enables the insertion of contents and metadata.

Preparing the work
Compose your work considering the editorial process.

Whilst in edit mode, you can equally preview the actual layout.
You keep saving your work as a ‘draft’ – only the editor can see it. The editor then publishes it in private mode, so as to enable peer review. Accepted works only become public after the editorial process is completed.
STEP 4: ARCHIVE
Your submission and final publication will be hosted in a trusted institutional server. Beyond regular URL backups, we keep an independent copy of your material to assure its preservation. Please copy/paste the final version of your WP “post” into a word document, and save it as HTML (.html). Place that document into a folder named LI-volume-number_publication-title. Place all the images, videos and audio files into the same folder. Compact the folder and upload it to an online server (e.g., Dropbox, Google Drive, etc). Send us the link.
