Junk Punk to Paper Punk

I contributed a piece on Junk Punk to SmolZine. It is under the section Spelunking.

check it out.

I got to thinking about how much of the kind of making I do involves the most abundant

kind of junk I can find: paper.

I thought there might be a chance there was a term to be coined in "paper punk." Nope.

There is a trademarked product out there which are little flatpack toys you can

assemble with folds. They advertise it as a marriage of origami and Lego.

I will write a piece bitching about for a future edition of my (paper!) Zine, and I'll

probably post it to the gem-space, as I imagine will be my practice from here on out.
