i</span>s a bold interdisciplinary journal that aims to challenge orthodoxies,
encourage debate, invite controversy, seek new applications, propose
new interpretations, and - above all - make new connections in the
growing pack of researchers who study Deleuze, and the lulz..for the
lulz. <br><br>
It is our conviction that the often incomprehensible abstract machines
of internet memetics, with its a-signifying mode of representation and
contagious flows of dissemination, require the most rigorous, advanced
and absolutely contemporary theoretical treatment. <br><br>
Contribution to the journal may include experimental constructions of
Deleuzian theories of/for the lulz as well as themes explored by Deleuze
himself such as 'Lulz in the control society' or 'Wolfs in Lulz'.<br><br>
Still, it is important to highlight that this journal is not another
niche to the already vast collection of "Deleuze and X" journals. This
is not about applying existing theory on a new, trendy field. Rather we
want to inject the intense, chaotic, adventurous and hyper-connected
spirit of the lulz into the nowadays lukewarm waters of internetional
Deleuzian studies. You can forget about bringing your
cybernomadic-surfboard...because I eated it!<br><br>
Since we aim for an interdisciplinary approach where diverse fields are
able to encounter each others practices, we encourage all internet
celebrities, artists, theoreticians, trolls, spammers and camers with an
special interest in the study or practice of the lulz to apply.. for
the lulz.<br><br>
Submissions will be IRC-reviewed by a board of prominent <a href="http://zefside.org/#reviewers">internet expert-users*</a>with
