Jake Chapman contributed the preface. For this issue, Ken Cockburn printed a book about the Scottish poet, Robert Burns and his favorable feelings toward the French Revolution. In an introduction to two poems, Cockburn mentioned that Burns died on 3rd Thermidor. He further suggested that the French Revolutionary Calendar attempted to wean peasantry away from the use of Saints' days by designating each day with a rural name. Carrie Reichardt made a yellow, latex mold from a woman (Alison O'Dell) that reproduced part of jeans and umbilicus. Most of the other contributions have visual or conceptual artistic themes. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
