Not stellar pay, but a great, short-term gig for someone who wants some extra holiday cash and an in with what seems like a cool organization. Must be in the general NYC area.

Here's a pretty sweet job opportunity with Electric Literature, a publishing house in Brooklyn, New York. If interested, please feel free to be in touch asap with my colleague, Chloe Plaunt, at chloe@electricliterature.com.
Electric Literature is creating audio maps of the world that will be available for free to anyone with a mobile phone. They will be filled with stories and oral histories of people's lives, notable places, and relevant facts. We need a top notch, hard working, blazingly fast Pro Tools editor to help us from now to the end of December edit audio before the launch. The job is full time, $10 per hour – 40 hours per week, plus overtime. Electric Literature is the start-up publishing company The Washington Post called "a refreshingly bold act of optimism." Our mission is to use new media and innovative distribution to keep storytelling a vital force in popular culture. We have over 150,000 followers on Twitter and are successfully expanding our audience through YouTube videos, iPhone and iPad apps, micro-serializing stories over Twitter, and other ways of using new technology and mediums to redefine what it means to “publish” in the digital age.
