For Issue 05: Ways of Mapping, Source Material collaborated with ArtCenter students and alumni to explore and examine how maps have influenced and continue to influence the way we witness the world around us.

The publication stands as a document and a celebration of nuance and individual subjectivity, inviting new modes of cartography that emphasize each person's singular experience of the world.

*Source Material is a student-led publication supported by ArtCenter's Writing Center. Created by and for students, SM is dedicated to publishing work that celebrates multi-disciplinarv collaboration and challenges traditional, institutionalized design. With each issue, we hope to bridge voices between classroom and department walls.

For this issue, the team designed a poster that highlighted geographic anomalies in California, and a custom nalgene bottle depicting a reinterpretation of the first known map of Los Angeles’ settlement.

The poster and nalgene were given out as release party exclusive collateral.

At the release party, publications were handed out for free, and a scavenger hunt resulted in nalgene bottles and posters being handed out.

Issue 06: Amends

The interconnectedness of humans have long since proven the necessity of disrupting, confronting, and reconciling the flux of relationships.

Through Issue 06: Amends, Source Material invites you to unravel the diverse ways in which students and alumni navigate the thread of making amends — with themselves, with others, and with the world.

Selected spreads:
The publication leverages the visual motif of stitching and patchwork to metaphorically represent the patchiness that comes with making amends in relationships.
