Zine to Think - The Green Zine Project

Zine by artist Sandra March, made from 100% recyled materials. Little collage booklet in a burlap pouch. Hand-stitched and handmade with ransom notes, from packaging materials. This is a single zine, the “Zine to Think”, the first one of the “Green Zine Project”. The goal is to spread its message and making it multiple with the collaboration of people, by making a copie of this zine, all unique, all different, and all made with recycled materials. The goal of the “Green Zine Project” is to generate a creation and exchange network, so if you have this zine in your hands or if you see it, make your own version with recycled materials, keeping the same sentence and adding your personal touch: “The greenest isn’t who recycles the most, but who consumes the least”. (quoted from Perdita Metabuk blog site.) - Green Zine Contest 2017 recipient of Honorable Mention, 18 pages, 6.5 x 3.5 inches

An ongoing collection of zines added to the holdings of the University of Miami Libraries Special Collections. Zines are typically independent and self published booklets popular in underground subcultures. The first zines were fanzines, started in the early 20th century by science fiction fans documenting the genre. The format truly took off with the punk rock movement of the 1970s, as a do-it-yourself spirit inspired legions of underground punk fans to start raw but vibrant journals documenting the nascent music scenes in their communities. Zine topics would broaden throughout the 1980s and 1990s to cover a variety of subject areas, from comics to anarchist politics to women’s rights, to more mundane subjects like dumpster diving, alternative fashions, tattoo art, and much more. Despite the expansion of topics, the format usually remained the same—self-published booklets printed in limited editions and typically produced with a photocopy machine.
