[Vol. 20, Issue #1] What is it to burn? To burn is to consume and to be consumed, to grow and to die, to create and to destroy. We flare up in youth and smoulder with age. It’s a transition from
one state to the next. When we think of burning, we think of a fire in the night, lightning
in a storm, a dry desert sun, a held glance, a secret, admiration, embarrassment,
resentment.
This year, we hope to take Incite in a direction
that’s both new and familiar, one which regular contributors and readers will recognize,
but in which new ideas and concepts will readily find their place. In this issue, we seek
both to celebrate the creativity and honesty of past iterations of Incite and to move on to
something entirely new. Here, we hope to speak to the energy and volatility of our own
lives as students, of the magazine itself, and of the world around us.
