Triple Canopy is pleased to announce the recipients of our fourth annual round of commissions, initiated with an open call for proposals on December 11, 2012, with a record number of over 400 submissions: Rosa Aiello, Shane Anderson, Bloopers, Anna Della Subin, Alan Greenspan, Irene Lusztig, Dan Phiffer, Matt Sheridan Smith, and Ada Smailbegovic.

We're pleased to announce the publication of our eighteenth issue, Active Rot, which includes Sara Greenberger Rafferty's meditation on televisual drama; Jibz Cameron and Hedia Maron's epic tale of dreams dashed by the Cartoon Network; B. Wurtz's invigoration of everyday objects; Martin Beck's study of American communes and their language; Peter Fend's plan for a global methane-powered economy; Boru O'Brien O'Connell's cannibalization of Gregory Bateson's metalogues.

For the past year, Triple Canopy's editors and designers have been planning an ambitious new online publishing platform. TC 3.0, as we're calling it, will not only revolutionize Triple Canopy’s work on the Web but forge meaningful connections between print publications and live programming, and so illuminate the entire sphere of Triple Canopy’s activities.

Foundational correspondence concerning Triple Canopy's maturation and grudging institutionalization. Excerpted from Invalid Format: An Anthology of Triple Canopy, Volume 2, designed by Project Projects and co-published by Sternberg Press, and available now at our online store.

We're pleased to announce the launch of post, a participatory digital platform for global research developed for the Museum of Modern Art by TC Labs, the consulting wing of Triple Canopy. Post enables scholars, curators, educators, students, critics, artists, and the general public to contribute to research projects focusing on the ways in which modernism is being redefined, especially in relation to the work of artists outside of North America and Western Europe.
