last weekend was spent at the diagonale-festival for austrian film in graz where we watched our friend klaus’ movie GROLL and partied a little bit. i didnt upload any picutres yet cause i forgot to take most of them. maybe later on there will be a graz/diagonale blog.
anyways: i bought a book there which i found quite interesting. it´s called “wreck this journal”or as you would translate “mach dieses buch fertig”.
Amazon says:
“for anyone who’s ever wished to, but had trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or sketchbook comes Wreck This Journal, an illustrated book that features a subversive collection of prompts, asking readers to muster up their best mistake- and mess-making abilities to fill the pages of the book (and destroy them). Acclaimed illustrator Keri Smith encourages journalers to engage in “destructive” acts-poking holes through pages, adding photos and defacing them, painting with coffee, and more-in order to experience the true creative process.”
or as said in brief: do stuff you normally wouldn’t do with a book like spit in it, burn a page, paint it etc etc…(hello EVA i know you would love it ;))
some people already documented their progress in wrecking this book and so will i. from time to time i will show you what i did with it.
for a start you can see the cover. untouched and clean (ok, not really untouched- it has some little spots of white colour on it from painting my walls..)
i think it will be fun fun fuuuuuuun to wreck this journal!
