Mission Statement
Invisible City Productions is a group of collaborating artists, writers, zine editors and
game designers who are dedicated to creating, promoting and distributing
alternatives to the products and activities designated as "entertainments"
by a monolithic cultural empire.
The alternatives we envision take many forms: anything from self-produced magazines
to a new version of tag. We are particularly interested
in products and activities that embody the following principles:
play, collaboration, creativity, inventiveness, intelligence and an
expansion of the possible.
It is our belief that people--all people--are inherently creative,
and that, too frequently, the process of being "entertained"
requires people to relinquish their natural talents, replacing
them with passivity and a sense that having fun requires spending
money. We are dedicated towards reversing this process.
We find that this goal is shared by a wide range of
countercultural groups, everything from punks to the Society for
Creative Anachronism. We take an immense interest in any network that allows these groups to communicate with one another, and
we hope, in the upcoming weeks and months, to use this site as
a space that aids those networks, and people attempting to
construct them. We hope to create an Invisible City, one organized according
to a different set of principles.
Appearing in alphabetical order, we are Jeremy P. Bushnell, Sharon J. Cichelli, and Jonathan A. Leistiko.
