so many paper cubes
shoot. i'm realizing that this photo doesnt really show the hours upon hours of work that this sculpture took. I made 35 paper cubes for my 3D design class.
it took me days.
my worst moment was when my x-acto knife broke in half. actually, it was some off-brand. that's why it broke. sometimes i despise off-brands. they never seem to work out. for instance: off-brand waffles? sick.
it was actually really cleansing for me to cut lots and lots and lots of paper and fold millions of edges and tabs and precariously hot-glue the miniature tabs to each other, and hate my life when I was trying to put the last tab in.
and then making the sculpture itself. that was intense. i had visions of creating an alien or something, but then realized that i would need hundreds.
so i stuck with a boring stack.
anyway,
this post is more for my own life-archives,
but perhaps you got something from it...
if not, i'm okay with that
goodnight all,
shannon

off-brand waffles?
this was hilarious for Eli and I because in registering we found we were skeptical about anything that was a brand we hadn't heard of, no matter how much more expensive it was or how many more gadgets it had.
brands.
they are known for a reason.
love...
Your cube reminds me of the Zorro swash. And that made me feel courageousish.
Hi Shannon, well doopy me, when I saw your boxes I though you had done a really neat thing and when I read that you didn't like it, well.....If you took that much time to make paper boxes then it makes it all the more amazing and I like it!
love ya, GR MA

That's so dumb. Why do two comments come up when I only put one in there???? Possible I double click when I do my clicking?? GR MA
have you titled the cube structure? it should be something like, "the cube project begun on super bowl sunday and annoying X annoying X annoying (cubed)"
or something. maybe "35 cubes" would work, too.
