how we did it!

Deteriora

the living graphic novel 'deteriora and the agents of destruction'

was created through a collaboration among the

indiana historical society local history services,

civic theatre of greater lafayette,

and purdue university galleries.

first, we met to plan the

concept, the issues of

collections care to be

addressed... and assign them

each a villainous persona!!

third, we used the photos to

assemble comic-style pages,

complete with panels,

captions and speech bubbles!

+

now hop to it!!

=

ok, so there was a little fun involved..

second, we photographed

staged scenes in and around

the eugene and marilyn

glick indiana history center

facility!

must have charts...

training links...
