= VOID blog = still gets work through it
= Book created to be non-linear, questions the practise of reading a book
= More shuffled approach

= Question behaviours and placement of imagery and text and change them

- sevenpointfourfivebooks.eu

= What is a book?
= What is its form?

= Getting someone else to publish your books means they create them
= Experimentation with images and their relationships with each other
= Can lead back into earning money

= Photocopying over photocopies in a random way = visually interesting
= experimentation by hand means you can't plan it on a computer

= 1 or 2 projects a year are gained through Instagram feed posts 

----------------------------------

BRIEF

- Create book/zine on subject of 'the book' 

= IDEAS
- Spines of books on book shelves presented as concrete poetry
- Page numbers from different books with margin of around the number = overlayed = shows peripheral vision of reader as they flick through the book 

= Leon and Millie paired up to produce first idea
= Mel and Charlotte paired to produce second
= Come together with initial production to decide which idea should be taken forward by whole group










































PRINTED 

= Happy with the layouts of pages, with some really interesting interactions between some images and text 
= Keeping it coloured but restraining on the amount of colours within a page refines it 
= Would've liked to have done more pages 
= But after spending further time taking pictures of more books didn't have time to create the outcomes to put in the print
= This time in the library could have been reserved for higher production quality 
= Nicer paper = preferably cream coloured? Would have worked with the majority of cream coloured images 
= Back cover could have had detail on it 
= Bind could have been thought about 






= Research project 505
= What if this was taken further for this module?
= All about perspective periphery vison 
= Create a view finder (paper with hole cut in it) and that's what shows through each page 
= What if a whole book is recreated with this view finder? 
= Outcome wouldn't have to be a book = could be eg. interactive website
