Triple Canopy works collectively with writers, artists, researchers
and other collaborators
on projects that deal critically with culture and politics, and the
ways people engage
them, both online and in the world at large. These investigations are
realized in an
online magazine as well as in public programs and print publications
encompassing
various fields and locales. We aim to present work and advance ideas
informed by a
multitude of disciplines and perspectives, and to disseminate them
among a broad and
diverse audience. Our first issue was published on March 17, 2008.
Internship duties
Interns take an active role in the editorial and production work that
goes into each issue
of the magazine, as well as assisting with the development of public
programs and the
pursuit of grants. Depending on an intern’s interests and abilities,
duties may include:
soliciting, evaluating, and coordinating the execution of articles
and artist projects;
taking part in editorial meetings; research assistance; coordinating
and publicizing
events; image editing and formatting; light coding and layout work;
devising and
implementing new features for the website. Interns are expected to
contribute between
10 and 15 hours per week, for the duration of a school semester or
summer. All positions
are unpaid, however students may earn university credit through
participating
institutions.
