About

The Index covers emerging technologies, new media, and what’s reconfiguring culture.

We’re interested in the why and the who: ideas, motivations, and people behind what’s changing. If it’s personal and human, we’re into it.

Four stories indexed per issue across Technology, Culture, Profile, and Opinion.

The Index is committed to accuracy, independence, and transparency. We fact-check our reporting, clearly distinguish opinion from reported work, and correct meaningful errors when they occur. Our writers and contributors are expected to disclose relevant conflicts of interest.

We use photography, commissioned artwork, archival material, and digitally created imagery, including generative tools, in our visual storytelling. We will never use AI-generated imagery in a way that intentionally misrepresents a real person, event, or circumstance as authentic documentation.

We are open to new voices: writers, storytellers, and people with something to say. Four commissions an issue, and we read everything that arrives.
