Intellect is an independent academic publisher in the fields of creative practice and popular culture, publishing scholarly books and journals that exemplify our mission as publishers of original thinking. We aim to provide a vital space for widening critical debate in new and emerging subjects, and in this way we differ from other publishers by campaigning for the author rather than producing a b

ook or journal to fill a gap in the market. We publish in four distinct subject areas: visual arts, film studies, cultural and media studies, and performing arts. These categories host Intellect’s ever-expanding topics of enquiry, which include photography, drawing, curation, community music, gaming and scenography. Intellect titles are often multidisciplinary, presenting scholarly work at the cross section of arts, media and creative practice. Intellect seeks to offer an unbiased platform for quality critical debate. We are committed to representing the author’s voice authentically, without imposition of our personal ideas or opinions. We place great emphasis on serving our authors and editors, customers, and communities. As a mission-based publisher, we are committed to reinvesting in our publishing activities.

As part of a series of conversations with professionals and scholars in the field of media, in this episode Mark Deuze sits down with Hannah Storm and John Crowley, founders and directors of Headlines Network, a UK-based support organization promoting mental health in the newsroom (headlines-network.com).

They discusses how the news industry can at times be best described as "an unreliable boyfriend," how reporters and editors can become enmeshed in their work and in their professional identity, the danger of "well-being-washing" by media companies that sometimes just do not seem to care about their workers, and how the encouraging debates around health and well-being post-pandemic have "come off the boil" - and what we can do next.

These interviews also support the forthcoming publication Well-Being and Creative Careers: What Makes You Happy Can Also Make You Sick by Mark Deuze which examines health, well-being, and happiness in media work. They aim to showcase and celebrate the important work being done by individuals and organizations around the world to advocate for and promote well-being in media workplaces.

Intellect is pleased to present Journal of Contemporary Chinese Art 12.1!

The Journal of Contemporary Chinese Art aims to present new research and critical debate into contemporary Chinese art, paying close attention to the relationship between contemporary art and Chinese cultural identity. The Journal provides a forum for critical debate into Zhongguo dangdai yishu, the ‘avant-garde’, experimental and museum-based visual art produced as part of the liberalization of culture that has taken place within mainland China since 1978. It also explores the various works produced by artists of non-Chinese ethnicity who live and work within Chinese contexts or whose work has a strong relationship to Chinese culture, society and history.

Including ‘Cognitive mapping with Chinese characteristics: Block structure, realism and transmedial allusions in Jia Zhangke’s film 24 City’ (2008) by Calvin Hui and 'Temporalizing landscape to disrupt history' by Peggy Wang.
