Illustration Friday: Unfold


This week’s topic, unfold, is a great one since it can be interpreted on so many different levels. Above is a picture of Wand Banesh, a character created for the SlideShare Tell-A-Story Contest. Ken O’Donnell wrote the story, which explores the early days of racial tensions between the dominant paper eclectons and the subjugated plastics. As the story began to unfold, I had to scramble to think about how paper eclectons would be put together. Unlike plastic, paper lends itself to folding, twisting and scrunching. It’s a funny story. Check it out:

The word eclectic means selecting the best out of diverse ideas systems or styles how are these things eclectons? More to come.....

Eclecton should mean quality not scrapes. We had the word eclecton before you and we are disappointed in its use here. It undermines our credibility.
