Do you know how much I love Triple Canopy? So much.
"Invalid Format, published annually, is at once an archive of Triple Canopy's widespread publishing activities and a translation into print of projects that originally appeared in other forms." I've put a couple of select quotes from the introduction here.
"We began the first volume of Invalid Format by describing how Triple Canopy came into being in the summer and fall of 2007, as a flurry, then an avalanche, of emails between friends and strangers. At the time, we had only a vague sense of what we were after: an online magazine, an original framework for serious reading and viewing in a medium that seemed to resist such efforts. [...]
By 2009, where this second volume picks up, we were realizing ambitions once floated in Google Groups. This was something of a surprise, and a challenge: How could we continue to publish distinctive work, and just what did we mean by “publish”? [...]
Taken together, these experiences of Triple Canopy as a protagonist, moderator, facilitator, writer, venue, designer, historian, technologist, and entity about town pushed us to place ourselves in what we later dubbed “the expanded field of publication.”
Invalid Format serves as a record of these widespread publishing pursuits, and as a translation of these activities, across forms, into print. [...]
How do you print an interactive exegesis of Latin American modernism? A memoir on Hinduism and electronic prayer that concludes with a Flash-driven puja? An mp3ed excursus on the sound of the rolled r? A YouTube essay on authenticity? A quodlibet on Prussian blue, when Web color isn’t true color and, anyway, this book is in grayscale?"
Our friends at Project Projects have made some soft-core, I mean soft-cover, pornography out of the book we did together. Rated X for invalid.

How do you print a digital publication? A conversation about Invalid Format, with Triple Canopy and Project Projects, as part of the third annual MISS READ, a festival of independent arts publishing.
I do have a minor obsession with online "trailer" videos made to promote things that are not films. Artist Joanna Neborsky made this piece (music by Cleaning Women) to announce the publication of Invalid Format: An Anthology of Triple Canopy, Volume 1, a printed compendium of the online magazine designed by Project Projects. Visual Good Times are Had By All here, but it also manages to craft a clear message around Triple Canopy's larger mission, which extends well beyond the Internet. TC editor Molly Kleiman and I shared a panel with the Art Institute of Chicago's Liz Neely at last week's Museum Computer Network conference ; it was called Beyond the Blog: New Waves in Digital Arts Publication (because that's how conference panel titles work, OK?). I, like many of us, have been following TC since its launch in 2008, yet the academic side of me relished hearing Molly talk about the inception of the magazine, from its whiskey fueled conceptual stages (as any conceptual stage worth its weight damn well should be) to its digital brass tacks. "Slow Down the Internet" was the editorial team's founding credo. I launched my first blog, Forward Retreat, in 2001. Back then, Joy Garnett, Kriston Capps, Greg Allen, Tyler Green, Tom Moody and a scant handful of others writing about the arts were my online contemporaries. Some came before us and many came thereafter. I have always assumed the position that one should devote a level of close attention to what one publishes on the web. The rise of social media has made it more difficult to maintain that imperative—I struggle with it a lot internally, in fact, even as I participate. Yet I believe that Triple Canopy is giving the Internet a run for its money. So ... Triple Canopy memberships for everyone, this holiday season? Consider it.
