Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
1/14: accordion binding
It's not my favorite book-binding technique, but it lends itself well to presenting certain kinds of content in a way that mass-produced books can't, so I've ended up using it a fair amount--for falling down falling through (summer 2015), metamorphoses (summer 2016), and now sprung tune (January 2017), as well as for 2 color-concept blank booklets (inspired by paint chips) I made this evening. It can be a vexatious binding, but I'm glad I've gotten all the practice with the form and some variations, and I've made my peace with it.
