Joshua Sariñana

Sariñana traces the underlying networks of the brain, and art, in a humanities context. He aims to consolidate and extend the traditional boundaries of these fields to a novel dynamic topology.

He obtained his degrees in neuroscience from the University of California, Los Angeles, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, studying dopamine's effects on hippocampal circuit activity, reinforcement learning, and spatial navigation.

He uses network theory to navigate and conceptualize his transdisciplinary art, science, and socially engaged projects. Sariñana photography is influenced by Expressionism and emphasizes the transformation of internal representations. His pieces have been exhibited nationally and internationally. 

Sariñana combines his media communications practice with his neuroscience and art background. He has provided his expertise to WIRED Magazine, MIT Technology Review, and as an invited speaker for the Neurohumanities series at Trinity College in Dublin. Learn More >>

Linsey Jayne

Linsey is a third-generation Lebanese American poet and writer, and is the cofounding editor-in-chief of Spry Literary Journal. Linsey established Spry with the goal of creating a safe, positive environment focused on support and growth. Spry is a biannual journal that publishes short, tight, strong forms of writing—poetry, flash, and short stories—as well as art, photography, and craft interviews. Spry is an all-volunteer journal—everyone on the editorial team is interviewed prior to acceptance, but joins and supports out of a belief in the power of muscular, vulnerable language, and art.
