Read the February issue of rez in Joomag:












As snow and ice is cleared from the streets outside, there’s plenty in this month’s issue to take your mind off the cold.  Persephone Phoenix interviews Huckleberry Hax and coaxes out of him some of his secrets to successful machinima making.  Hercules AI is Codex Blur’s companion piece to last month’s stunning article.  Hoyt is a heartfelt piece by Farima Hoisan, her tribute to a dear friend struggling with life’s issues.  In The Edge, Klannex Northmead returns with a poem not only from the edge of the universe but also the edge of our imaginations. What issue is complete without hearing from Art Blue?  His contribution this month, 2042, catches Chat-5.1 in a serious coding error:  a typo! Indigo Starling brings us another of her delightful tankas, this being Tanka Number Two.  Finally, RoseDrop Rust steers the Good Ship Lollipop through treacherous waters with life-saving effect in Lieutenant Darling.  Curl up under a nice blanket and enjoy this month’s issue.

January rez Posted

read the January issue of rez in Joomag:

If you’re worried about having good things to read in this new year, we have just the remedy – a stellar collection of prose and poetry to start things off right.  Unknown UUID begins this month’s issue with a simple problem:  The Typo.  Never has such a minor detail created such a kerfuffle.  He does his best to unpack it in Checkpoint Unavailable.  Further explanation may be forthcoming in next month’s issue. Zati Kodaly tantalizes us with a superb poem (in English) entitled Was Fruchbar Ist Allein Est Wahr.  Klannex Northmead contributes the first of what we hope will be many limericks, this one featuring a happy signora. Hercules by CodexBlur is next up, a look at Hercules as a possible candidate for Father of Code. Indigo Starling brings us the first of nine Tanka, this one simply titled, Tanka Number One. We can’t wait for the next one in the February issue.  Nellie Bly tells a simple story in her beautiful poem, Waves.  Lastly, Lynn Mimistrobell brings the issue to a close with an insight into the difficulties facing Lili Boulanger and other women composers. Happy New Year, and enjoy the issue.
