The Artifice is an independent long-form online magazine that focuses on visual arts and other "unique topics." The website is collaboratively built and maintained by writers, with all articles peer-reviewed by other writers, with discussions about various types of visual media. While the platform is open to any writer, people within academia are often contributors to the magazine, which uses a WordPress platform. The site offers in-depth articles in the field of film, literature, anime, manga, comics, games, television, arts, animation, and the craft of writing. The content is not in the style of academic essays, nor personal blogs, it is somewhere in between these two. The Artifice is often read and praised by celebrities like Neil Gaiman, who notes the content as "remarkable." Currently, the Pennsylvania State University, University of Texas at Austin, University of Chicago, University of British Columbia, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, University of Florida, Ohio State University, University of California, Irvine, Purdue University, Michigan State University, University of Arizona, University of Toronto, University of Waterloo, Australian National University, University of Sydney, and promote The Artifice as a writing opportunity for students, staff, and faculty.
