While we have not chosen a single theme for this issue, one noticeable thread regards the question of post-production – that is, all the stuff you do to a thing after its initial construction. Post-production is a term typically found in cinema. (...) Yet post-production is not limited to film-making, rather, it can be taken as a more general effect. We seem to live this effect more so every day – a perpetual re-edit – a Derridean slippage whereby origin dissipates into a shimmering mist, cause and effect are reversed, and everything just keeps moving on and on. (...) You won't find one article about post-production in this issue, but several which reflect upon its effects. Another aspect of PP? You might even find some attempts to reason its causes. Isn’t that just so merge?
