Irrégulomadaire was founded by Jean-Charles Depaule, Susanna Shannon, and myself in 1990 as an experimental collaborative publishing project. As the title suggests, Irrégulomadaire does not come out on a fixed time schedule, nor does it have a fixed format or content. Each issue has a different theme and employs a different editorial process or strategy for exploring it.
