For this month’s cover story, Jami Mills interviews GlitterPrincess Destiny about her art piece, Born in Kurdistan, where the artist captures the amazing images of girls at war against ISIS. It’s difficult to call them girls, as they are feared soldiers of the Peshmerga, itself one of the most ferocious of fighting forces. Glitter brings home the anguish and loneliness of war, a fight for survival against a brutal enemy. Her show will be up through the latter part of August and we recommend it to you.  Ripley Fourneau joins us for the first (and hopefully not the last) time with a crisp and insightful piece about Augmentalism, Immersionism, and her own concept of Escapism. All very rewarding reading and extremely thoughtful and well written.  An issue of rez wouldn’t be complete without an article by our very own Art Blue (perhaps plagiarized from his AI owl, Neruval), and this month we have Cybereddie Go, wherein Art chases the elusive Lampas in true Pokemon style.  Flynt Firebrand brings us an exquisite poem, Hounded, about the relentless march of memories. In Third Grade, Mariner Trilling hilariously takes us back to those halcyon days of grade school.  Spoiler Alert: Mariner swings a mean lunchbox! Jullianna Juliesse contributes two short poems this month, the first being Rebuilding Me, where piece by piece, Julie reconnects herself, and the second being Unhinged, a wonderful poem about another unnamed station.  Cat Boccaccio is back this month with a companion piece to last month’s The Accident, this time re-introducing us to Lily-Rose Roades in Pensive, a beautiful short work. Wu is back for her third installment of the scintillating she rezzed #3. We hope she continues to bring us more of her unique perspective.  Adrian Blair also returns with a nostalgic poem about Parisian yearnings. And closing out this month’s issue is a lovely poem by Huckleberry Hax called That Word.  I hope you enjoy reading this issue as much as we enjoyed printing it.
