The Mechanical Copula
'The first thing you notice is nothing. It takes your eyes a little whileto get used to this, after ten seconds you cant remember lookingat anything else,'' writes Maria Fusco, founding editor of The HappyHypocrite, in ''How You Lost the Stars,'' part of her first collectionof short stories.

In this spirit the editing process happens outside the journal in the form of a parley-based art writing festival at the Whitechapel Gallery, London in August 2009, with new commissions selected from invitation and open submission.
