Cyborgs, Centaur, and Post-Humans


Shoot a high-resolution self-portrait (head and shoulders) - any pose, any accessories, clothes optional. Use Photoshop to mask and silhouette your portrait - removing it from the background. Alter the photo to reflect your fantasy - a fictional character, cyborg, etc. Watch the movie about masking and silhouetting in the Course Folder: 04_maskinghair.mov

Handmade Books

I found this site that has lots of handmade items, including books, journals, comics, etc. It's mostly for buying and selling things, but it has a pretty nice collection with a lot of different ideas for books...my favorite is the cereal book :)
