Issue Design Kristina AlijošiūtėWe live in a world of 'memory wars'. A world in which there is a constant struggle for the right to remember, for the right to one's history, to one's memories, to one's identity. The guest editor of this issue is art historian and curator Dr. Daiva Price. In Memory as a Journal the curator asks: how do we talk about history when the present is in competition with the past? How can we talk about Second World War when the War in Ukraine is happening now? How should we remember when memory is traumatic?€15We live in a world of 'memory wars'.

Limited in space, bodies are immense in their potentiality. Today, in the face of a crisis – ecological, military, economic and social – it is their vulnerability that defines them most. Guest edited by Neringa Černiauskaitė, a writer, curator and one half of the artistic duo Pakui Hardware, the issue scrutinizes vulnerability in order to show that it is often evoked by systemic flaws rather than personal failures. At the same time, vulnerability is not treated here as something to be anxious about, but as a tool for building community, for transforming rigid structures, for bringing the flesh into theory, and to open up oneself to the other.€15Limited in space, bodies are immense in their potentiality.

Guest edited by Damian Lentini, the edition probes sound's ability to shape and generate effects. Soundscapes as a Journal invites leading artists, writers and scholars to investigate sound's ability to shift back and forth across times and spaces; incorporating traditional and contemporary positions, digital and analogue technologies, as well as that which emanates from both organic and inanimate bodies.€15The third issue is dedicated to sound: as art; as vibrations in space; and as a constituent component of our experience of the world around us.
