Hello Frameworks, I'd like to share news of a new film journal, *Now! A Journal of Urgent Practice,* which will be officially launching in 2015. However, due to the latest events in Ferguson, and because of the purpose of our journal, we have just released a Bulletin of films in response to and in solidarity with Ferguson. Please visit our site at: http://www.now-journal.com/
>From the Now! Declaration: "Residing at a crossroads between film journal and radical newsreel, *Now!* *A* *Journal of Urgent Praxis* will foreground films and writings made in rapid yet eloquent engagement with the here and now of political and cultural life. *Now!* aims to stimulate an alternate form of practice across critical writing and experimental cinema, operating in a different time signature than the academic quarterly, museum exhibition, or film festival. *Now!* can respond to crisis. *Now!* can offer the radical reply. Despite changes in technology that make it easier than ever, few journals make films available as a central component of their content. Fewer still foreground new films, emphasizing the archive instead. And none focus on films that place an equal weight between formal innovation and political urgency. *Now!* will confront this absence directly..."
