“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Speculations

Speculations, a new journal of speculative realism, will be appearing shortly. Open source publication is so the way to go. The theoretical physicists caught on first but the Open Humanities Alliance is a truly good thing. I'm excited and a bit humbled to be part of it. The whole online philosophy scene is the best thing that happened to philosophy for a long time. Along with OOO!

Like many things speculative, this journal is beautifully designed, the designer in question in this instance being Thomas Gokey.
