The third issue of e-flux Index is now available in print and for digital download. 540 pages long, this volume includes contributions from 76 authors, artists, architects, filmmakers, poets, and theorists from many parts of the world. Ulysses Carríon once declared that “In the new art every book requires a different reading”—an attitude which the Index here adopts in its approach to contemporary culture.

Ranging from short articles and reviews of exhibitions, books, and films, to extensive interviews, long-form essays, and new theoretical vernaculars, the new kaleidoscopic issue of e-flux Index reflects in eleven chapters on topics ranging from the technology of remembering in a forgetful era, to the saturation of contemporary imagery and the current state of photography, moving image, and appropriation art. In fast-changing times, Index 3 also responds to the current climate of cultural censorship over Palestine, and explores the fault-line between diversity and homogenization—from global food monocultures to architectural uniformity. 

In two stand-alone chapters, the issue presents the first English translations of feminist writings from the 2022 Jina Uprising in Iran, and elsewhere explores the metabolic rifts of the climate crisis, from the curious origins of autotune in Exxon oil extraction to speculative essays on post-fossil fuel architecture. Index 3 also focuses on the role of notation in musical scores and performance scripts, eventually ending with a section that turns everything inside out to consider the potential for code-switching and the subversion of binaries in art and life.

Index 3 features contributions from: Kwabena Appeaning Addo, Kimberly Alidio, Shouka Alizadeh, Corina L. Apostol, Arnavaz, Aram, Andrius Arutiunian, Goli Baharan, Stephanie Bailey, Oliver Basciano, Merve Bedir, Silvia Benedito, Pietro Bianchi, Alessandro Bosetti, Arno Brandlhuber, Nathan Brown, Boris Buden, Harry Burke, Rocio Calzado, Matevž Čelik, Adeline Chia, Ted Chiang, Canada Choate, Jace Clayton, Kim Cordóva, Ana Dana Beroš, Dasgoharan, Miri Davidson, Nuzhan Didartalab, Travis Diehl, Brian Dillon, Maria Dimitrova, Ben Eastham, Ren Ebel, Elaheh, Ludwig Engel, Future Foodscapes Research Unit, Ghoncheh Ghavami, Olaf Grawert, Boris Groys, Maddie Hampton, Negar Hatami, Jörg Heiser, Sandi Hilal, Daisy Hildyard, Juan José Santos, Nicole Kams, Biljana Kašić, Tamta Khalvashi, Alina Kolar, Cat Kron, Agnieszka Kurant, Michał Libera, R.H.
