C22 (Collective 22): https://c22press.wordpress.com/ is an artistic collective focusing on experimental writing. Our work is influenced by Dada, Surrealism, the L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E poets, Futurism and other pockets of the avant-garde. We are a small group aiming towards expression rather than commercialism. Each member is free to create art as they wish, to collaborate if they wish, and to publish work elsewhere should they choose. It’s all about creative freedom and sharing our passion for experimentation.

#Ranger Magazine : https://www.rangermagazine.net/ is an online/print magazine dedicated to experimental art, poetry, music, and film. Our motto is “Art that’s not vanilla.” So-called “market forces” do not matter here. Thus, #Ranger is a subterranean thought experiment. We seek to uncover whether avant-garde art still has relevance to society, even in an age of capitalist realism.

The New Monuments: https://www.thenewmonuments.com/ is an internet journal publishing conceptual writing and digital ephemera. It was founded in 2025 and is currently operated out of St. Petersburg, Florida. It is edited by Eric Blix. The name of this journal is taken from the essay, "Entropy and the New Monuments," written by Robert Smithson in 1966. The name serves as a shorthand for the journal's general aesthetic position, which seeks to engage, prolong, and distort the fascination held by Smithson and other conceptual artists for anti-representational practices and nonstandard materials.

BLACK STONE /WHITE STONE : https://blackstoneonawhitestone.wordpress.com/ From the realization that there is a stone waiting for us comes bs/ws. From the realization that we have also been that stone comes bs/ws. From the realization that ink is in our blood, even if it’s not in our name. From out this black and white world comes bs/ws. Our name comes from the Cesar Vallejo poem and we want to honor it through surreal and experimental poems. We are a deep dive zine. Each issue we will take a deep dive into one poet who expresses a need to explore & hammer away at what it means to exist.

Cut Collective https://www.cutcollectivewriters.org are poets A J Moore and Amber Whitham, prose writer Ethel Maqeda and Mark Lindsey who writes in both forms. We write independently but work together to find platforms for our work and encourage new writers, with a particular focus on discovering/giving space to texts which might otherwise struggle to be heard. We are as interested in the processes and thinking that produce the text as we are in the text itself. We’re always happy to talk about collaborations, both with other writers and also artists working across different media.

Clockwise Cat: The Dada Verse (https://clockwisecat.com) recognizes that poesie, both the scribbled and visual kinds, is a potent protest against the Tyranny of Tyme. Dada prizes absurdity over all else, and while we acknowledge that not all verse and visuals in our zine are explicitly absurdist, the idea is that it is created in the Dadaist spirit of protest against the manic militarization//militarized mania that has pervaded our collective societies for centuries. Dada smashes ALL rigid rationality that leads to this manic militarization//militarized mania. And rigid rationality is created WITHIN time, whereas Clockwise Cat is created WITHOUT time – outside the brutal boundaries of the clock-cages. Clockwise Cat: The Dada Verse features Zen-Surrealist verse and visuals, and lately we have added prose poesie as a focus, while still embracing lineated poetry, too.
