Issue 13 Spring 2004 Futures

Table of Contents


CD Update: It has come to our attention that some of the CDs for issue 13 were not manufactured properly (they seem to have on them files required to sign up for a Walmart Internet account!). This is not a conceptual move on our part. If you have ended up with such a CD, please either email us or call us at + 1 718 222 8434.

The thirteenth issue of Cabinet features a themed section on "Futures." This section, guest-edited by Daniel Rosenberg, includes an audio CD, an artist project by Aziz + Cucher, an illustrated timeline of timelines, and Miryam Sas's English translation (the first ever) of Hirato Renkichi's Japanese Futurist Manifesto.
