The Creative Publishing and Critical Journalism Student Association presents a panel discussion on paths forward in the publishing industry.
Students studying journalism, design, and publishing are encouraged to examine the existing publishing industry through the lens of possibility. We are participants in and preparing to enter an increasingly precarious industry that is equal parts hostile to and obsessed with new ideas and innovations. In this ever-changing media landscape that is shaped by publishing mergers, layoffs, digital interventions and legacy media gatekeeping, prospective writers and designers are always in danger of the industry closing another door on them. This can stymie efforts to imagine a path forward.
With this in mind, the CPCJ Student Association is hosting an evening panel discussion about the future of media between members of burgeoning independent media outlets and related thinkers in the field. Our goal is to highlight professionals who are challenging the publishing industry and demonstrating new approaches to how it is run and consumed.
Panelists include Andrew Hsiao (Verso Books), David Carroll (Parsons School of Design), Flynn Murray (Lux Magazine), Max Rivlin-Nadler (Hell Gate) and Snigdha Sur (The Juggernaut).
Presented by Creative Publishing and Critical Journalism Student Association at The New School for Social Research.
