Squares: multimedia, from scratch, words only, asymmetry

[semperfiona]

This is intentionally awful. I made it in about ten minutes from/with stuff in my office: a sheet of copy paper, a used birthday card envelope, oil pastels, charcoal pencil, ballpoint pen, gluestick, and scissors. Then I took a cellphone photo of it and imported it into GIMP and outlined the letters with the paintbrush tool, again intentionally not-caring about accuracy or neatness. It's decidedly topheavy, because I purposely didn't frame the photo well.

The podfic (not!podfic?) is an unedited cold reading of "The Chaos", a 1922 poem showcasing the many contradictions of English pronunciation. Contains errors, retries, commentary on the differences between my accent and the one used by the poet (as shown by the words that apparently rhyme in his dialect and definitely DO NOT in mine), and a fair amount of cackling laughter.

This is really cool and I love it! It feels appropriately chaotic and personal, while being clever and funky. :D
