How Soon Is Now?

Today I finished everything to prepare Zeitgeists #1.

Printed:
- Lona her contribution
- All the black cardstock obi strips with the names of the artists
- The artists references page / hand-numbered page.

I already started to fold and glue everything, put the logo in the obi strips, and actually collecting all the sections to form #1!

So it needs a bit of DIY.. +
A few days of patience...



Update.

Hello all..

The last part of Zeitgeists #1 is going to be finished right now.
Had some delay because of not being happy with the print outs of the photographer her pictures, and I couldn't come up with the right cover designs for all the sections (typeface, layout etc...) --- designers block?

Still not sure what to do with the photographer her prints. Going to give it a last change this week. Still using two different methodes and if these will fail in quality I have to postpone her section to #2.

I received all the packaging materials and other nice objects to make this first release looking fabulous!

The artists: Thanks for your patience, support and trust!
The followers: Thanks for your patience and you won't be disappointed!

Almost there...

Two more sections have been printed:
- SCRMN his colorful art
- Experimental Jetset their contribution.

And I am still trying to get the right result for Lona her photography.

In the meantime I released two tapes on my label Zeitgeists:

So Far, So Good, So What...

- French's part is folded

- Rainbath's part is completely printed and folded

- My own small contribution is finished

- Max his booklet needs another round of layout since I got more content! :-) I have ordered the perfect paper as well. Will be printed upcoming week

- Going to make test silkscreen prints for all the covers upcoming week

- Ordered some samples to keep all the sections together. Some matt-black re-sealable plastic bags. Going to be silkscreen printed or another solution
to tell the world what's actually inside 

- If the samples aren't good enough I thought about another great solution, I will keep you updated.

Another nice gadget..

I am very busy trying to print the photography part of Zeitgeists. This will be a challenge because up till now I am not satisfied with the result. So hopefully it will be better this upcoming week.

As well as searching for black rubber-bands. Had contact with Alliance Rubber Bands but they never replied about a sample offer... So if any of the followers can help me out, please contact me. ---> j o h n j a n s e n 1  g m a i l


Finished section

- Finished French's section

- Found the perfect paper for Lona her section. Nice cream-color, uncoated rough paper which totally fits the/ her theme

- Next: Rainbath's section is almost done printing and Lona her section will be printed after that.

- Found the perfect solution of keeping all the sections together, in other words: to make it an actual magazine.

Salut!
