MicroProject5



To group: two or more figures forming a complete unit; a number of individuals assembled together or having some unifying relationship.

     One of my favorite magazines is GQ. I get it every month when a  new issue comes out. I don't know why. but I never ever throw them away. Unless they're completely destroyed. I've got an unknown amount of them stacked on a shelf in my room. For this project these are what first came to mind. An average every day item that I don't really think about. I used the definition of group (above) to represent my project. I thought of all the different ways I could combine the magazines and finally came up with the idea of weaving them together into one giant cover. I used a ruler to mark out equal sections and then cut them all out. I tried to pick covers that kind of contrasted each other a little bit so that they would show up better. Once they were all woven together I glued all of the edges down so there was nothing sticking up.The entire process took a lot of work, but it came together well. I really liked the finished product. I love doing more hands-on projects. I'm not so great with technology.
