So, yesterday I started my senior project which for those of you who don't know is a requirement for graduation. I must learn or do something I have never done before, create a final project, write a fairly long research paper, and give an 8-10 minute speech. My project is learning how to use various letter presses and book binding. Yesterday I took a crash course with my instructor, Kelly McMahon, and learned a cornucopia of information about the patience of setting type and the result of too many ink/lead stains on your hands. It was a lot of fun and I am excited to continue working. Eventually I will post pictures.
