Burning Down The House
We both assumed different identities today, this morning, Sarah was Tom again to present his paper Drawing with Fire: the art of laser cutting for book art and paper which gave an overview of his AHRC funded project Paper Models. Paul was Deborah Southerland this afternoon, presenting her poster on Edible 3D printing.
Once we had finished we were able to go to Teal Triggs keynote speech: Ripped & Torn, but never thrown away: The legitimisation of the ephemeral graphic object. This included a case study of the British punk fanzine Ripped & Torn produced by Tony Drayton in print form (1977- 1979) and his online website Kill Your Pet Puppy (2007 – present).
Other good things today: Scott Lyon's fleurons, an exhibition of ornamental type casts and photography at MAILBOX 141, at 141 Flinders Lane, Melbourne, which is on until 28th October. And The Sticky Institute in Campbell Arcade, Melbourne, home to zine culture, with lots of lovely zines in stock, and badge and zine making on site.
Um, and soon we will be at the Impact Barbecue party, which as it is still raining, will be inside (!).
