Some thoughts on Boris Eldagsen’s Image, well ‘photograph’, an AI generated image.

Review of the literature on pictograph sites in the Canadian Shield with specific reference to those found in the Lake of the Woods, in north-western Ontario, Canada.

The authors recognise the need for a fresh acuteness to three-dimensionality as a meaningful – a…[Read more]

The present article challenges Walter C. Kaiser, Jr’s influential proposal for evangelical Old Testament missiology.

Las luchas por el territorio ocurren en localidades específicas, con expresiones únicas. Sin embargo, nunca es sólo una mina, un relleno sanitario, un gasoducto, un tren, una refiniería; detrás de estos proyectos existen diversas escalas en las que el mercado mundial conecta la maquinaria, gran industria, comercio y las regiones de sacr…[Read more]

In this essay, we share how a small, independent, academic open access (OA) press, punctum books, has survived and can maybe thrive financially, but also in terms of human quality of life dividends, in the very precarious landscape of making and funding open books. Tracing the history of the press and our bumpy road to better financial…[Read more]

Ivan Illich (1922-2002) and Bernard Stiegler (1952-2020) borrowed the figure of Epimetheus in the process of elaborating an…[Read more]
