Founded and launched in 1972 by photographer and curator Nathan Lyons, Afterimage: The Journal of Media Arts and Cultural Criticism has served as an important voice in the media arts. The journal features unique, high-quality coverage of digital media, film, games, photography, television, video, and visual arts, and addresses important issues and debates within art history, media studies, visual and cultural studies, and related fields. In addition to in-depth feature articles, the journal publishes book and exhibition reviews as well as conference and festival reports. With the move to UC Press, Afterimage is now an online-only, full-color, quarterly journal (released in March, June, September, and December). And starting in 2020, the journal’s feature articles will be peer-reviewed.
