Bye Corinna vanGerwen Former Editor in Chief Influx Mandate InFlux Magazine exists as a forum for ECIAD students to communicate intelligent and thoughtful artworks and writ- ing concerning the world of art to the city of Vancouver. Run by ECIAD students, InFlux does not exclude the contributions of staff, faculty, alumni and others outside of the institute. InFlux, as well as showcasing the art- works of ECIAD students also contains writings about art, design, and media arts and issues related to and influencing these disciplines. The styles of writing are as diverse as the students and includes creative writing, commentary, theory and critical writing, as well as news and reviews. InFlux is meant to provide an alternative voice, highlighting new perspectives and ways of looking at both new and old ideas while engaging and inspiring its readers. InFlux aims towards becoming a definitive arts publication of the Vancouver arts scene, showcasing the un-established, unknown, up-and-coming art world. 3 «4 oe Produced at Emily Carr Institute of Art and 1- front cover / 2- e hoxha gallery / 3- index / 4- contributor’s; drive-by’s / 5- ad; 536 traits of the perfect manifesto (1-19) / 6- e hoxha gallery / 7-ad / 8-9- e hoxha gallery / 10-11- english teacher / 12- e hoxha gallery / 13- the best thing is that it's made of dough / 14- ad / 15- e hoxha gallery / 16- spacemonkeys on mars: a condensed version / 17- e hoxha gallery / 18-21- curt / 22- a rather unpleasant mark; no brow / 23- 11 painters review; graffiti excerpts / 24-25- tamara stone interview; ad / 26- thumbsketches and the following...;ad / 27- e hoxha gallery / 28- thenewgraffiti; ad / 29- ben smith’s mighty goo / 30- ego / 31- walk of art / 32- back cover ce A-N\-F4 ik—BN< MDX Editor's Ramble - Sweet Goodbyes Writing a final editor's note is a pretty daunting task.
