Fabric Notebook [PopComps]


Danielle made this composition notebook sculpture out of soft materials. She sez:
I wanted to take the general idea, and the recognizable aspects, of the Composition notebook and put them into a new format. I work with fabric and fiber materials in most of my projects, and so I tend to think in terms of those materials as well. This book was fun to make, I machine stitched the lines of the "paper" and image transfered the text and images. The cover was created using black fabric painted with white textile paint. I used a blanket stitch in an accordion spine to bind it together. I used excerpts of conversations for the text and original doodles for the images, which were photo copied and chemically transfered to the fabric.

Lisa the Drama Queen [PopComps]

A compy was featured pretty prominently in the recent Simpsons episode "Lisa the Drama Queen," in which Lisa and a new friend write fantasy stories about the magical land of Equalia. I would think any magical land ruled by someone called Queen Helvetica would be a little more, I dunno, Swiss? But hey, you can't beat the twonicorn who throws up rainbows. :P
So does every nerdy kid go through that escapist worldbuilding phase or was that just me and Lisa?

Hurley and Lola [PopComps]

Hurley is re-writing Empire Strikes Back so Luke and Darth resolve their father/son issues in a civil manner.

Lindsay is writing a reboot of The Parent Trap, hopefully with more light sabers.
