Description. "Test Patterns for the Human Mind." The current issue was a momentous one in our history. It marked a decisive shift, away from individual works generally displayed one per page, toward attempts at more graphically complex layouts and a greater than ever before dependance on text for content. The issue takes the unusual, if not unprecedented, form of two magazines in one - marking, at the same time, the début of a new "submagazine" called Retrofuturism, occupying the bottom inch-and-a-fraction of each and every page. Memorable works from this issue include a series of images and texts by Steve Harp entitled "Photographs within Photographs"; the short but richly ironic "The Magritte Flashcard" by R.K. Courtney; a splayed booklet by A1 Waste Paper Co. Ltd. called "U-Make it (no talent)", which is a satire on the Tuyau daily 'zines appearing at the time; and all of this amply filled out by other, often equally interesting works, as well as the reviews, news, and opinions, as is par for this particular course.
Contributors include. Ll. Dunn, T. Hibbard, Piotr Szyhalski, Jack Moskovitz, Bob Gregory, Joseph Keppler, Gregory Cullen, Steve Harp, A.1. Waste Paper Co., Greg Zimmer, Thomas Wiloch; Joseph A. Uphoff, Jr.; R. K. Courtney, Mike Miskowski, John Stickney, Dazar, Steve Perkins, Chris Winkler, found, Thad Metz, The Tape-beatles
Project Overview: The Photostatic Retrograde Archive serves as an electronic repository for a complete collection of PhotoStatic Magazine, PhonoStatic Cassettes, Retrofuturism, and Psrf, (as well as related titles). Issues are posted as PDF files, at more or less regular intervals, in reverse chronological order to form a chronological mirror image of the original series. When the first issue, dating from 1983, is finally posted in several year's time, then this electronic archive will be complete.
