Welcome to Hyperrhiz: New Media Cultures, the peer-reviewed online journal specializing in new media and net art.

Hyperrhiz is published twice-yearly in conjunction with our parent journal Rhizomes: Cultural Studies in Emerging Knowledge (rhizomes.net), and maintains a community weblog for news of interest to the new media/net art community. Visitors are encouraged to create a login and contribute (of course, abuse will not be tolerated..)

We welcome submissions of net art, new media scholarship and criticism, or reviews of media-related books or blogs. For submission criteria, please check our call for papers schedule.
