Awhām #5 - The Haunted Issue

In awhām issue #5 ‘The Haunted Issue’, we reflected on the struggles of the day woven into the reanimated stories from yesterday in the infinity of the multiverse – an endless variety of worlds and the spaces between them. Destruction and recreation, an active remaking of worlds, rediscovering ones that were lost and forgetting those mapped into our consciousness.

What role do ghosts of the past play in deciphering and encoding observations of what surrounds us? Where do these ghosts clamber? How can we rethink our understanding of the world through the occult practices and reflect on our relationships which travel through bits of code, moving and transmitting within open waters, and concealed within undersea cables? Our contributors shared their practices of building shelters and strategies for nourishing gardens and sought ways to articulate the creative power of world-building.

We invite you to discover the created temporal and spatial portals and pathways between what was, what is, and what could be.
