Get Featured on Rorotoko

‍

Rorotoko is a curated space for ideas.

Since 2008, the platform has published short, focused interview threads with authors, scholars, scientists, artists, and creators whose work expands how we think about the world. Each feature invites readers into the central ideas behind a book, project, artwork, or line of research.

We are always interested in discovering thoughtful voices and original work.

Although we curate the work of authors featured, we are also opened to sponsored or partnership features. If you have recently published a book, completed a major creative project, or are engaged in work that deserves wider intellectual attention, we invite you to apply for a Rorotoko feature.

Submissions may be made by authors and creators directly, or by representatives such as publishers, publicists, galleries, museums, or agents submitting on their behalf.
