Issue #45 -October 2009

This month we are celebrating the launch of craft + design enquiry our new, open access, peer-reviewed, online journal that interrogates discourses surrounding craft and design practice. The first issue Migratory Practices: exchanges between anthropology, art, craft and design, guest editor Avi Amesbury, presents six papers examining making, ethnography and fieldwork and the ethics of anthropological and artistic production. craft + design enquiry will be published annually and to this end we are already underway with reviewing papers for issue # 2 investigating the area of cross-cultural exchanges in craft and design to be published in 2010. Included in this issue of 716 is the call for papers for Issue # 3 entitled The Carbon issue - Sustainability in craft and design, guest editor, Dr. Kevin Murray.
