The non/fictionLab is an interdisciplinary research ecology based at RMIT University, Melbourne, bringing together creative experimentation, critical practice and social engagement. Our writer-researchers aim to reimagine and transform contemporary realities through language, mediations, poetics and collaborations. The non/ fictionLab is proud to partner with Mekong Review to commission a new series of short, collaboratively written literary works and criticism; this series will examine the notions of space and place through creative exchange and collaboration between writers from Australia and SE Asia..
