This weekend at Cymera Festival in Edinburgh, the independent press that I co-manage, Hedera Felix, will be launching its digital magazine, SisM.
SisM is a new online space dedicated to time-based and code-based literary works (e.g. expanded literature, moving image, experimental sound and film, and net art) that explore the weird and the eerie. The project was inspired by our passion for net art, weird fiction and Mark Fisher's writings and has been created as the sister project of Mycelia, our print magazine for weird fiction and visual art. To showcase SisM, we will be presenting Mez Breeze's expanded literature work, *A Place Called Ormalcy*, a science-fiction dystopian allegory crafted in Virtual Reality. Visitors will be able to experience the story at our table in the Creator's Hall. We have arranged for VRoom from Glasgow to support us in equipping and guiding the reader (one person at a time) to explore this exciting, room-scale VR world! Where: Cymera Festival, Pleasance Courtyard, Edinburgh; in the Creator's Hall. When: Saturday 8 June & Sunday 9 June (the VR screening will take place between 1pm and 3pm on Saturday).
