Hello,
I just saw this email and noticed that the curatorial deadline is Oct. 1!
UGH, I missed it. I¹m part of a team that recently released a book/dvd
called ³Strange Attractors: Investigations in Non-Humanoid Extraterrestrial
Sexualities.²
According to recent scientific reports, there may be between 8 billion and
13 billion life bearing planets in our galaxy alone. With numbers like that
we will certainly encounter living beings from outer space someday. When we
do, what will they look like? What special parts will they have, and how
will they ³do it?² Will we find what they do sexy, incomprehensible or just
plain gross? You can find the answers to these questions and more in
Strange Attractors: Investigations in Non-Humanoid Extraterrestrial
Sexualities, an extraordinary 288 page, full color, book and 120 minute DVD
encompassing art, writing and film.
There are videos in the program by:
Shana Moulton, Jacob Ciocci, Peggy Ahwesh, Hilary Harp & Suzie Silver,
Darrin Martin and Torsten Zenas Burns and many more. If you¹d like to see a
preview check it out:

If there is any chance that we can still make a submission, please let me
know. However I understand if the Oct. 1 deadline is firm.
Thanks for your consideration.
