About.
Device is a mixed-media exquisite corpse project serialized digitally. The concept is this: present all visitors with a 'storyline' of sorts, moved forward with prose, poetry, a video, a song, or an image. This, of course, will not have as streamlined a look as traditional exquisite corpses, but it allows for the inclusion of many more artists. Think about it as you would a stage script. The texture of this exercise will be dictated by the choice of media in each installment, either owing to the particular strength of the given contributor, or that contributor's wish to challenge themselves. If you would like to be considered for inclusion, please send an email to device.magazine[at]gmail.com.
Contributors.
R.T. is the de facto editor of Device. He is currently working on a novella and four short stories, while also maintaining an undefeated season of Madden '09.
Brandon 'Our Hero' Gretter is the last flickering flame of life in a universe otherwise devoid of hope; he is better than the Autobots, Hawkeye Pierce, Snagglepuss, Batman, Ernest Hemingway, and the 1963 Boston Celtics combined. He is currently waiting for someone he is very friendly with to hit the lottery and provide him with the opportunity to do what he has always wanted to do: avoid responsibility...and write, probably...and meet chicks. If he could have one nickname besides "Our Hero" (which is already the best nickname), he would want it to be "Wolf Rocket."

Amie Speroni has escaped the clutches of common insects,
somewhat thwarted her considerable codependent tendencies,
rebutted accurate and deserved impeachments of character,
and survived numerous brushes with substandard food service through
the cunning and strategic planting of daffodils.
Emma Haskins is usually biting her fingernails, drinking tea, or drawing circles on scraps of paper. She dreams about the smell of printmaking studios, she doesn't share chapstick, she worries about the same things you do, & she sporadically posts her art here and here.

Laura Spencer was born, grew up and started writing in a city with echoes of old factory life. She is the co-founder of Big Lucks, a literary journal that has quickly been added to the five things that make her happiest (surprisingly close to the random sounds of Joe Strummer).
