Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (June 2026). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

Radical wonder is the path to peace. It’s only through viewing the world and its people through the lens of banality that you can harm it. Radical wonder does not need to be positive. You can marvel at the hope or horror or anything in between, but we’re not interested in seeing it as mundane.
