Do you have a writer’s bug that eats away at you because you just have so much to say to the world? Then consider being a Cultural Navigator! Schema Magazine is an Asian Canadian magazine that strives to reflect the most culturally mobile and diverse generation of Canadians, the generation we’ve called Cultural Navigators. In doing so, Schema is a showcase of their unique sensibilities, interests and their pursuit of ethnic cool.
Using a new model for cultural identity, or “schema”, the magazine envisions individuals as dynamic identities that move through a complex web of cultures. Cultural Navigators see themselves as the product of these networks, available to them through immigration, family roots, and residency in diverse cities all over the world. The webzine explores this unique evolution and experience of Canada’s diversity, and the things–be it food, music, art, film or comic books–that we seek out, enjoy and produce as part of our diverse daily lives. We call this innovation ethnic cool.
Cultural Navigators crave this cultural innovation in the arts, media and public life , and Schema Magazine delivers in three formats:
* Your Daily Dose of Ethnic Cool, a fresh perspective on mainstream culture,
* Feature Articles & Interviews (currently being expanded), and a
* Podcast (currently in development).
Chances are, you’re a Cultural Navigator:
* Use their mobility in, through and around cultural spaces;
* Value their ethnicity, but are not defined by it; and
* Are at the heart of today’s mainstream
Why don’t you consider being one, too? Check out the internship opportunities:
