Description
"
Wild
girls
redux
: an
operator's
manual
is
the
revisit
of a
book
created
almost
12
years
ago
. The
original
book
, How to
Become
One
of the
Original
Wild
Girls
, was
designed
and
printed
in
1997
. That
book
is
a
playful
list
of
imaginary
'
rules
' that 'should' be
followed
to
achieve
Wild
Girl
status
. The
rules
are
light-hearted
, but they have the
sting
of
recognition
that
most
women
realize
to be
sexist
in
nature
.
Wild
Girls
Redux
reexamines
these
issues
,
using
motorcycle
road
and
driving
rules
as
text
along
with
images
of
pin-up
girls
and
industrial
schematic
illustrations
. The
tactile
materials
of the
book
include
pink
heart
paper
doilies
,
white
doily
placemats
,
flocked
paper
covers
, and
green
office
ledger
papers
. The
intent
of the "
Operator's
Manual
"
is
tongue-in-cheek
and
provides
the
ordinary
,
mechanical
, and
absurd
rules
of how to
operate
women...
.
Cover
is
flocked
paper
in
maroon
.
Binding
is
an
accordion
portfolio
cover
with
two
pamphlet
structures
sewn
in...
.
Each
book
comes
with with a
set
of
stickers
,
kept
inside
a
yellow
office
mailing
envelope
decorated
with a
wrap-around
belly
band."--Publisher's
