I've been very neglectful in not posting in the last month. That does not mean I have not been busy with the thesis. In early November I started to design the book and also get material for making the purple paper for the covers and end sheets. I went to the Maxwell AFB Thrift Shop and found a variety of purple shirts and one child size jean dress. It made a great paper. I beat and pulled a small batch to make the cover material. I've posted a short clip of what it's like to beat fiber. Then the result of the pulp after the paper dried.
I thought you also might like to see a screen shot of how I'm designing. I'm using InDesign to create the document that will then be sent to be made into negatives. Next will be making the images to go into the book.
