The Science of Obscurity is upon us!
Friday, July 10th, 7-10pm at Jupiter Outpost
Facebook event-- Invite your friends!

The Chicago Underground Library celebrates "The Science of Obscurity," an
evening of new, unpublished, and in-progress works presented as science fair
experiments. The night will also feature a public book launch via catapult
and the mass purging of rejection letters--community literary rituals in
need of revival!
If you are a writer, publisher, bookmaker, or booklover of any stripe who
has recently finished writing a book, has published a book in the past year,
or just feels like taking out some aggression on a publication of your
choice, we invite you to celebrate by launching your work into space--or at
least halfway down the block. We define "book" broadly, so zines, magazines,
chapbooks, textbooks, and more are welcome. Read a paragraph, then release!
And while we're busy launching texts outside, we'll be dissecting the
mysteries of the literary universe inside. Join a dozen local, national, and
international writers as they intricately explain the scientific principles
underlying their work, real or imagined. Dioramas! Volcanoes! Colorful
graphs! Higher mathematics!
We'll cap the remarkable evening with the shredding and launch of your
collective rejection letters, so take them out of storage and cart them
along to hand over to our nurturing, accepting staff at the Rejection Table.
This event is free and for all ages. Other attractions will include the
dazzling debut of the Chicago Underground Library's artist-designed drop
boxes, debutantes, prizes, and a raffle!
