The group's research was materialized in a prototype for a book, which experimented with most of the technological skills we had read about. Namely, it was printed in graphic waste, used posters from the wall, cutting and inkless techniques, etc. There were things like soy-based ink we couldn't try out, even though we ventured into the chinese restaurant a couple of times.
