About Azimute
- Azimute is a site for publishing online critical theory, philosophy, reviews, translations, experimental fiction and poetry directly related to the French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari.
- The site is planned to rhizomatically engage in multiple and diverse realms with interests in perspectives on allied radical interests:
Anti-globalisation, Dada, Bataille, Duchamp, electronic art, Throbbing Gristle, Artaud, the Situationists, Stockhausen, Kathy Acker, Stelarc, Lautremont, Kafka, Godard, E-poetry, Beuys, Foucault, Burroughs, Bacon, Nietzsche, Body Art, Tarkovsky, Herzog, Cage, queer theory, hacktivism, Butoh, L'Art brut, Svankmajer, Guyotat, Hakim Bey, Xenakis, Jake Chapman, Negri's Empire... and whatever you care to introduce to us.
- The site is structured into window boxes as fluid categories and it is intended that new window boxes will be added as required.
- We are interested in publishing both academic and non-academic texts, and endeavor to provide a place for texts with a radical, activist and experimental focus.
- Azimute wishes to fill the gap in the difficulty of getting published texts which are thematically or stylistically outside academic arenas, popular interest or existing political/artistic paradigms.
- Our ambition is to not only cling to the last surviving vestiges of radical intellectual culture, but to foster and continue it's development.
- No editing will be carried out on submitted texts.
- The copyright for all contributions remains entirely with the author.
- We also welcome texts for publishing in French and German.
- Azimute is not associated with any academic, educational or artistic institution.
- Azimute is also interested in developing collaborations and sharing ideas on what this project should be, so please let us know your ideas.
- Azimute is currently based in Australia.
- The success of this project depends on readers and writers to contribute texts, ideas, make suggestions and provide material. That means you! Let's make things happen!
