Crap. Reconstruct '09 Fashion Show--themed SUPERHERO!/SUPERVILLIAN!-- is a week from tomorrow and I haven't even started! I'm doing both a hero and a villian, made out of old, discarded, unwanted music--mostly vinyl records--but also cassette tapes, 8 tracks?, whatever else I can get my hands on. The hero will represent all that is good and pure about music--and the villain will symbolize the toxic music "industry". It's cliche, but i think it's
supposed to be. Right? Superheroes are
all about cliche.
I'm taking inspiration from these couture pieces featured in the Met Museum's
archives. And now all I have to do is figure out how to melt vinyl records. How hard can it be?

This is a pretty incredible piece by
Niki Cook from last year. What a cool medium! I bet it's super toxic! I think this diynetwork
tutorial pretty much sums it up. Easy peasy.
