Statement Graphic

Here is what I've laid out as an artist statement for the structure:

Thanks!

Artist Statement

Does anyone have the sheet of paper with the rough draft of our artist statement? It was on the black desk when 3 of us left for Home Depot.

I'll try to paraphrase it:

This structure is the common ground on which twelve projects for positive social change come together in a showing of unity. The purpose of these projects is to use the power that we possess as a group and as individuals to create a better world. The quote formed by grouping the twelve books is by Martin Luther King.

PLEASE COMMENT

Info Graphic for Title Pages

Can we just use the image that Janet posted of all the covers as our info graphic? It may be low-res but it looks like the fastest solution for people who are finishing up their books. What do you guys think? Should the person's book that it is in be in color or just outlined stronger?

magnets

Our HUGE roll of magnet has arrived! Yaaayy :)
There's one thing though.. its really very heavy. Is anyone driving to the city on Thursday? If yes, then can i drop it off at your place on Wednesday night so that you can bring it? I can help you carry it upstairs once you get to the city.

let me know. Thanks!

Pinks. This time we'll get it.

Hey, I just checked with the guy at Pinks and he said if we have 4 (8.5x11) rub-down sheets to him over the noon hour tomorrow he can do them for Thursday. Please have the files laid out and completed by 11:00am just to be safe.

mission statements

I had asked for everybody's mission statements to be posted on the blog yesterday. So far only 5 people have posted theirs. We HAVE to get everybody's mission statement by tonight, so please do the needful if you havent already.

We're running out of time, I do understand that everybody must be busy with their other courses / individual books, but this is important too, especially since we are depending on an external supplier for getting the rubdowns on time.

This is a tough time and this too shall pass :) Godspeed...

final covers

I just got a response from Brody about the covers. He really likes the idea of tying in the title with the word on our covers (I'm sorry, I was the one opposed to it). I dont have the energy or the time to defend/ argue with him. Can we have a quick (emphasize "quick") show of hands for this one?

Just post your votes in the comments section with a Yes or No plus any other suggestions you might have.

Please no more calling me at work. I can't walk out of the office this much.

Need a cover decision

Okay, these covers need to be laid out or at least it try to do it. Supria has been kind enough to volunteer her efforts. If we can't come to a clear decision then everybody has to except what she creates. We need to have something on the covers of our books.

Book Covers

Hi guys,
I sent Brody the covers, but there hasnt been a reply from him. We cant wait any longer coz we'll have to lay everything out to make rubdowns.

Can we have a vote on the different cover designs?

Also can everybody please please post their mission statements on the blog, coz those will have to be made into rubdowns as well.

Everyone's Full Name Please

Can everyone comment with your full name as you would like it to appear on your book? Please put it next to your short name so that we don't get confused.

one more layout

This what I was sketching on class on Friday. Just a quick rough layout. If #2 has the majority votes, I'm all for it. But I do think we should pass it past Brody once.
