The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill offers a rich cultural environment for one of the nation’s most competitive universities and, as we are sure you all agree, one of the best all around. From Carolina’s spirit on campus to the rigor of acadmia, we seem to always reserve an innate warmth for Chapel Hill. And during one of the most transitional periods in our lives, we are constantly searching for new outlets for expression. These offerings of the self are meant to be shared with a community, to reach out to people, to make connections.

Uncharted Magazine provides a medium through which people can share their expressions of the self -- their art -- with the Chapel Hill community. This magazine is a unique collection of virtually unbounded expressions of art. You will find articles relating to music, performance art and visual art, three disciplines that are distinct, yet extremely intertwined.

Uncharted is a publication for the community by the community, so your input is greatly valued. Readers can register online on Uncharted’s website, create an artist profile and upload articles, art, photos and whatever else you may wish to include. In this way, Uncharted is not only a medium, but a networking tool designed to connect the community through its art. There are no limitations or guidelines, only freedom of expression.

Uncharted is pleased and excited to release its first issue to the Carolina community, and just as excited to receive your feedback. Put off those papers and problem sets just a bit longer to enjoy the articles that follow. If you find that you want your artistic voice to be heard, submit your art and articles online at www.uncartmag.com. And so, it is with great pleasure that we are able to introduce to you the first ever issue of Uncharted Magazine, where expression is free and the arts are appreciated.
