The brief: to make some form of fanzine in a day based on a given word.
My word was repeat.
I started out with some postcards I found in a charity shop which I wanted to use.
I began by experimenting with about 4 of them; photocopying them, cutting them up, adding text to them.
However I kept coming back to the idea of slicing the images and piecing two images together.
Once I had one long image I then begun folding the image into a concertina so that you could see one image one way and the other the other way.
I then created a variety of these long images which I then Japanese bound together.
The idea being you could take the pages out of the book and create the concertina for yourself.
I would really like to create a lot more of these double images, perhaps playing further with the splicing and repetition of the slices of imagery.
In terms of the concertina it might be night to experiment with text; something you can read only when you have made the concertina.
