Brand New Flyer/Zine Make New Friends Vol. II. Click here for link to downloadable/printable version. I learned the 1 page zine fold technique from Mikey of Mission Mini Comix years ago. I took that teaching to the New Traditions Elementary School where my daughter went and taught all those kids what zines were and how to fold the 1 pager. Funny, years later one of the kids saw me and said they were making zines in their high school. I made  a few zines for the kids including how to make noise instruments, Arabic script and Chinese characters. See, zines are a great way to teach yourself as well as teaching others and can be about any of your interests. Tip: great way to not waste time on/escape from social media/screens. Make New Friends features the musicians I play shows with. The reverse side is the flyer for the show (this time designed by my friend in Scotland). Playing live shows is all about getting people out and presenting the chance to meet new people, so this zine is about that, but also a little background on the performers. It’s a tiny thing, but it’s an old DIY community music scene building praxis we need more of. MNF is about people and  their creativity, sharing their methods, giving their point of view, humor. Unprofessional  and unabashedly amatueristic. I I have a few copies left, contact me if you want one. Also as noted, you can print it out for yourself. Follow above link to the PDF. Print it for two sided and follow the rough guidelines for the folds. It should be 8 panels. Fold “hamburger” wise and cut in the center/middle between the two inner panels. Press together “hot dog” wise. The cut should form a diamond shape when folding into the zine/booklet (check out this YT vid for a visual). Shout out to Adrian at our local print shop for always coming through with the graphic design strategies for all my weirdo ideas.
