I had the pleasure of attending Vide’s workshop on making zines and memes. Honestly, this workshop helped me immensely with my idea for my final project, and future Prof. Vide (yes he did so well that I’ve deemed him a future professor) even gave helpful websites that can also be used in our final project making process (at least in my case, as I want to involve hyper-links). Anyways, after a very comprehensive history of zines and memes, we got down to the dirty work, trying to make our own zines.

I definitely need to learn how to fold paper straight better, but other than that it was pretty easy to make the physical zine form. I didn’t have enough time to finish my Zine (and no I won’t share it, because it is unfinished), but I did come to a cohesive theme for the Zine. I made it into a tiny Burn Book, as the newspaper I had access to included a photo of Pete Hegseth. (I gave him devil horns and a devil’s tail…immature, maybe—well deserved, definitely.)

Anyways I’m going to give y’all the link if you want to check out the resources Prof. Vide gave us just in case it is also helpful for y’all’s final projects. https://tinyurl.com/ZinesAndMemes2025

Also thank you Vide for having this workshop :).
