Crossbridge vol 1 issue1: International Journal of Multidisciplinary and Progressive Research

CrossBridge is a multidisciplinary and thought provoking cross-over between peer-reviewed academic journal, public affairs magazine, and visual art/literary review.

The name CrossBridge conjures the connecting of ideas, subject areas, and philosophies, bringing together schools of thought not usually viewed as having relevant association or interconnected dis-course. The journal's vision departs the usual solely academic focus to also include practice-based research that enables social progress, opinions and commentaries, and arts. We aim at embracing marginalized and often neglected members, ideas, and needs of and for the whole Earth community.

Steven Johnson in Where Good Ideas Come From: The Natural History of Innovation (2011) wrote that spaces that allow "collision of creativity" between people of different backgrounds facilitates innovation. CrossBridge aims at being such a space.
