I second the "GEO-PATH SYSTEMâ„¢"
Maybe we can add City ,State, Country next to the name.. so we can plan that path..
good idea!

(Aug 29 05, 16:56)i think he's volunteering to be last on the list because he's a book binder. and can do an amazing job of binding everything together. right?

it would be awesome if 45 books were made and distributed to participants but i feel sorry for whoever wants to make them
we could use the "original book" auction proceeds to have the books printed up at a printhouse. like cheap softcover jobs...

we could choose someone to do the final scanning and quark/indesign layout, and have 45 copies ordered from a printshop. this person would get to keep the original OR auction proceeds in exchange for doing this work.
total expenses are divided 45 ways and each perrson may choose to purchase a copy for that amount.
if someone doesn't want to purchase their reserved copy of the book, said copy will be sold to another nter

that sounds good, but if we're going to print them, you might as well pump out 500ish copies. you're going to have to shell out $100 or so a copy if you're only making 50 with the makeready and binding setup involved

just make it a sketch book, and then next time around let's get fancier on it. walk before running and all.

someone wanna look up good prices for 50, 100, 500 copies?
100 or so pages, 8.5x11", cheap binding

saddle stitching is the cheapest bet..
i used to do a graffiti magazine and for 2000 copies it was running us about 4000-5000 including delivery for a 24 page, 4 to 4 bleed, 4 color, saddle stitched book... shit ain't cheep

it's up to you guys
here's an idea though:
when we scan them for the gallery, a downloadable pdf is made and anyone who wants to can print it out and bind it themselves...
keeps it simple and you can have it bound any way you want

this would also eliminate all expenses
