    In one of my senior seminar classes, we were supposed to make a book (yes, an actually book, binding an all) about 'text out of context.'

    I took the test from a Cessna takeoff (or landing, I forget) checklist, and made it into a book without an obvious front or back, that didn't open correctly, and bent in random places. You had to fold the whole thing flat, and then follow a messed up path to read the text.

    So, the text, while technically readable (there's no manipulation or intentionally poor typesetting), the text itself it totally useless as an information source. It's on my website if you want to see it.

    It's not he most sophisticated thing, but it was fun.
