Spittoon Literary MagazineThe Spittoon Literary Magazine and Spit-Tunes are a product of the Spittoon collective. The Spittoon Literary Magazine, founded in June 2016, is a biannual publication of English and Chinese writing that aims to facilitate dialogue between contemporary Chinese and English-language writing. Our audience consists of Western and Chinese readers, each interested in the other’s and their own literature. By publishing Chinese literature with its English translation, and English-language literature engaging with China, we hope to confront our readers with new questions and perspectives about other cultures as well as their own. Now in its second issue, Spittoon has already attracted some of the leading lights of contemporary Chinese poetry and has received recognition by foreign media in China as one of the top-five literary magazines in Asia.
Spittoon文学杂志和Spit-Tunes都是Spittoon这个项目的产物。成立于2016年6月的Spittoon文学杂志是一个中英文写作的半年刊读物，旨在促进当代中英文的对话写作。我们的读者包括西方和中国读者，他们对自己和他人的作品都很感兴趣。通过出版中文文学及其英文翻译，以及与中国的英文文学相结合，我们希望能够了解读者面对这些文化的新问题和观点。Spittoon现在是第二期，已经有了当代中国诗歌的亮点，并被外媒视为中国最受欢迎的五大文学杂志之一。
What is Spit-Tunes?Spit-Tunes takes advantage of Beijing's diverse and talented music scene by selecting artists and bands from different genres and pairing them together to collaborate with writers and poets. The musicians select the poets and writers they want to work with after a selection process - The musicians choose the poets or writers based on how suitable they think they are for their certain styles of music. After the partnerships are made, the musicians and writers work together for a month to make a special collaboration song based on the musicians and writer's individual style.
Spit-Tunes充分利用北京多元化和创新的音乐风，将不同风格的艺术家、乐队和作家、诗人进行合作。音乐人在即兴之后选择他们想要与之合作的诗人和作家、根据他们对某些风格的音乐的适应度选择诗人或作家。合作伙伴关系结束后，音乐人和作家一起工作一个月，根据音乐人和作家的个人风格进行特别的合作歌曲。
