So the zine was originally going to look quite forensic and sterile, and it still does but now I have taken off the labels on the photos so it's not stating the obvious.
This also means some images are a little more ambiguous so your wondering what they are until you hear the commentary. I have kept the label maker idea and printed out the title and my name on the back so it still has that kind of police file look about it.
Its double sided photocopied black and white so it's easily reproducible.

zine Project
So I chose to read through the zine and just see what happened, (one take) I explained what the items were and maybe why they are there / important. It makes up a little story and I quite like it. I had to have some sort of video so I just added a few photos of my car played slowly so they weren't too distracting. The car comes up in the story so it's not completely random. I added the old film effect so it's like a kind of joke about how old the car is and a kind of documentary look too.
Holy HELL!!
the reason it doesnt look like I have been blogging for a while is because I have been having a nightmare with trying to get my audio on youtube....I have tried lots of tricks and programmes but in the end had to make a video and upload that using iband and imovie.....this is after doing quite a few voiceovers and trying to make them into mp3's, so basically I have ended up with this youtube video

Lenticular Printing
This is when you want two images on one card to imply movement/ animation when the image is tilted.....i have looked into making it myself and have just got a load of demo's of already made ones??

Turner prize 2010
This audio was played out in a white washed room.....it doesn't seem very moving but when your in there and maybe close your eyes its strange at how powerful it is! maybe its the contrast to running round london all day but its calming and disconserting at the same time. Maybe having some strange audio playing as you read the zine is the answer?
Visiting the Tate Britain this weekend
- Unfortunately I didn't have my camera or a notepad so....
there was one picture that really interested me in particular. It was a kind of mind map analysing how old people deal with society changing and alienation. The artist had framed pictures and created links to objects such as a plant pot and written "to brighten up the hall" and a picture of youths in a playground and saying "I try and avoid the park at night" really showing the isolation and difficulties of living on state pension on your own! very moving and sad.
THE POINT OF MENTIONING IT!
I liked how he did the layout how he commented on images that are seemingly pointless and giving them a back story, even making them something to think twice about......I could do the same with my stuff! give the backstory to why I have a pair of huge headphones or why I love my car so much!
