Sheet Joints

Tape is banned from putting the sheets together from here on out. The craft with tape is just too bad. The result is that your intentions are not clear because the craft is not good. That joint should be invisible. EXno.6 requires no joining. EXno.7 (due Thursday) will require two sheets printed and combined. Nothing using tape to combine the sheets will be accepted. Projects with visible joints will not be reviewed or assessed (a "0" for the exercise).

The best way to do this is to align the two sheets on your cutting mat and firmly tape them down in the correct relationship. Using an Xacto knife and a metal straight edge, cut down the overlapping joint so that both sheets are cut at the appropriate location. (Be very careful not to cut yourself.) Then, using RUBBER CEMENT and a third sheet as backing, glue the sheets butted up to each other. Ask your TA about this technique on Tuesday if that doesn't make sense. It makes no sense to put the effort into this work and then make it look unreadable through slap dash craft. You should be making work that lies flat on the wall and displays your intentions when pinned up. We are going to be much more clear now about what is acceptable in submissions.

The art supply store RENDR at 26th and Boston has Rubber Cement, unless you've all bought it all.
