Description. "The Festival of Plagiarism."  It is fair to say that 
the editor returned from August 1989's Festival Of Plagiarism in 
Glasgow, Scotland, with a fair number of new ideas and fresh 
inspiration. The Neoist-drenched proceedings at the Transmission 
Gallery during that week and the many face-to-face meetings between 
people previously known to each other only through the mails created 
a sense of solidarity and newfound friendship. It's fair to say that 
it was a watershed moment for Photostatic, for the simple fact that 
after the Festival, the publication would never be the same. For one 
thing, this is the last time that PhotoStatic and Retrofuturism both 
appeared between the same set of covers. The latter title had, until 
this point, generally been treated as a 'section' or a kind of 
'column', with its own editorial logic and sometimes even layout 
style. The current issued devotes substantial page-space to a report 
from the Festival, photos of some of the events there, as well as 
writings gleaned from the other Festival participants. At the same 
time, the business of Photostatic carries on, with the participation 
of its acquired roster of columnists and usual suspects. with a 
myriad of other diversions.

Project Overview: The Photostatic Retrograde Archive serves as a 
repository for a complete collection of Photostatic Magazine, 
Retrofuturism, and Psrf, (as well as related titles) in electronic 
form. We are posting issues in PDF format, at more or less regular 
intervals, in reverse chronological order to form a mirror image in 
time 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.
