Each issue is different in content and intent, variously including scores, pieces and ads for Fluxus works, posters for Fluxus concerts, and photo-reportage of past performances” (Phillpot/Hendricks).”‘Fluxus Newspaper No. 9’ (misnumbered 8) consists entirely of photographs by Peter Moore, with a 2-page insert identifying the contents” (Henricks).
