This almanac project is a way to show off our talents and personality to a potential client. within the 16 pages we had to show what we do, how we do it, and also project a sense of self. Pete mentioned seeing our minds as a factory, and what it can produce. but i see my own mind as a creative grandmas bunaglow, as i generally shy away from technology and like hand-made items and collage. my almanac had pages (or walls) of old wallpaper, and boxes (antique frames) to show my work, inspiration, and images relating to what i was saying. i made my own type, each individual letter cut out by hand and it was all assembled with pritt stick and scanned in to print.
I really like my almanac, i achieved what i wanted, and think it shows me and what i can do well. the only thing i'd change is that i didnt get to print professionally, or on recycled paper. time got the better of me but i still made the alamac myself, a slight fall before the finish line but i'm still very pleased with this project.
