brainwane: My smiling face, including a small gold bindi (Default)
[personal profile] brainwane posting in [community profile] zines_not_mags
Late last year I made a zine to hand out at Maker Faire: "Playing with Python: 2 of my favorite lenses". That blog entry also includes page-by-page scans and transcripts, process photos, and thank-yous.

Feel free to view it in that blog post, view it as a PDF, or download and print the single US letter-sized sheet of paper and cut and fold it for yourself into an 8-pager! I'm such a fan of the format, because it doesn't require any stapling so it's simpler to reproduce, and because when I'm giving it away to someone they can engage in the process of making it. In 2015 I gave away a bunch of my zines at Maker Faire and passers-by really got into learning how to cut and fold them. In 2016 I remember at least one child coloring her "Quill & Scroll" after folding it, which, my heart just grew three sizes, you know?
