| All images taken myself - Zines available from Salford Zine Library |
The
Salford Zine Library,
situated in the Nexus Cafe in the Northern Quarter, had a wide variety
of zines. They came in many forms and covered a variety of topics from
feminism to socialism to bulimic whales to personal memories. The huge
variety of types of zines gave me a lot of inspiration for presentation
of my zine. I preferred the zines that had an evident element of
handmade or craft or is personal to a person. This allowed me to feel
closer to the maker and more of a connection. Additionally, the ideas of
handcrafted and personality seem to make the zines much more labour
intensive suggesting the strong ideas and importance to the maker.
