Dan, I have to admit I also didn’t realize that you could only to the Book Splash layout once, though that makes sense! If you want a title page for your project, you could try the “Blank Slate” feature, which […]

Lisbel, I think your project will definitely benefit from annotating the images as well as creating text! I know inserting notes and media in individual pages can sometimes be confusing. We will go over the […]

Sharwane, I think annotating the images will help greatly in demonstrating the differences between the different manga styles. Annotations and media in general are very much the benefit of using Scalar! The […]

Allison, I’m looking forward to seeing your project develop. I agree that the specific terminology that Scalar uses that be confusing at first, since it’s so idiosyncratic. Hopefully more time with the platform […]

Kehinde, I’m interested in seeing this project develop, but I need more information on the primary sources the project is remediating. Are you and Sharwane working on editing or commenting on at least one example […]

Lisbel, it’s interesting to see what in an impact audience can have on how ideas are presented! I think you were one of the only people who found the terminology helpful. I think parts of it are definitely more […]

Allison, I think it would be productive for you, Lisbel, and Diamond to compare notes for your project as you think through the kinds of ways you hope to present information about your primary source and how/why […]

Elvis,
It’s really useful for us to reflect on the craftsmanship of book- and Zine making as way to get us closer to the ideas/arguments they are sharing. I think the sense of intimacy is absolutely a huge part […] -

Sharwane,
Thanks for sharing your past experience with bookmaking! That seems really interesting and I agree with Daniel that it would be interesting to see it. I wonder what happened to it after the youth club […] -

Kehinde,
I like the reflection of audience here and what makes Zines special — they are often rare in the sense that you can usually only find them in a few places, but not so rare as to have only one copy, for […] -

I like your point that Zines combine aspects of multiple media such as pamphlets and artist […] -

Lisbel,
Really great reflections here. I think that paying close attention to the “craft and artistry” as you put it, is crucial in revealing the humans behind the process of book making: we want to always think […] -

Dan,
I like your point that working with one’s hands can create a sense of calm — perhaps the focus of the activity moves us away from multitasking in a way that is satifying?The question of intimacy keeps […]
