A notable absence, a muting, making invisible. Redaction extends beyond the simple black squares as incomplete redactions - stamps marked with 'deleted' covering the text- white squares, and handmade notations. Each black square signifies absence. It serves as a reminder for enforced forgetfulness. Uncovering the secret behind the mask and discovering the text underneath seems like a daring task, but is the redacted information really gone? What is visible in cultural spaces, and what is invisible? In attempts to appeal to the public, what is redacted? We accept any theme that explores the theme of CENSORSHIP.

To be in transit is to be human. No one does well staying still too long. This past year has shown us more than ever that nothing is ever permanent. In this journal we explore the different ways that people, museums, and institutions can be considered in transit. We are addressing questions of tradition, culture, movement, and remaking. We acknowledge that tradition is not necessarily a bad thing, but tradition is the product of an established stability and in this journal we are concerned with what must be changed because our world is constantly in flux. We invite our readers to transport from one idea to another as they journey within these works. We ask our readers to consider the museum and how we as museum and cultural practitioners in the 21st century can grapple with the spectrum of changes that should take place now and in our future. How do cultures shift? How should our institutions shift alongside and represent change? In what way are we always moving?
