Introduce the QZAP or Portland Button Works zine you read in a breakout group for five minutes:
- Why did you choose this zine?
- What does the zine say about its creator--directly or indirectly?
- Why do you think they chose a zine as their medium?
- Are there graphics in the zine? Handwriting? Collages? Do they complement or complicate the text?
- How does the zine make you feel?
Zine sample-palooza! Read/skim a zine for two minutes and then switch, for five rounds--last round, your choice of these zines.
