Seeds is an annual zine about making things that make things: generative software, procedural content generation, all kinds of randomness and unpredictable processes in games, art and other culture. We want you to write for us - tell us about something you made, something you saw that inspired you, or something you've learned about that you want to share with others. Just send us some words and a few pictures, and our amazing editors Jupiter Hadley and Dann Sullivan will put it together into another beautiful issue.

Seeds accepts two types of submission:

Seeds typically opens submissions in July, with a deadline of early September. Check back later for details on the 2020 issue!
