i put “All I Want for Christmas is You” through a MIDI converter, and then back through an mp3 converter

the result is this garbage

[red3blog]

I’m driving myself up the wall because I swear I can hear the vocal line but I don’t know how that could be if it was truly converted to MIDI. Unless you can replicate speech sounds entirely with modulated MIDI notes, in which case I’m actually impressed with this tire fire of an MP3.

This is the best thing ever. I don't think I've ever been so fond of Mariah.

The Fine Art of Book Butchery Deconstruction

What you need: bad book, a utility knife/box cutter. That's it!

A full guide below!

Strip the book!

Once it's naked, take a look! I've marked where the bookboard is attached to the spine. This is where you cut!

Do both sides and voila! Boards!

You can trim these to fit whatever size you need later - for now, set them aside! We're gonna get the headbands!

Delectable...hidden...Not for long!

You can very easily peel the spine back as seen here - and then you can peel the headband off.

Sometimes the glue makes it a bit tricky (as seen here) - just use your utiliknife!

Do both sides... and that's it!

With the remaining text block, it varies on if your city can recycle it. However, it's also good for paper mache! Pulp! Blackout poetry! Discard paper! Compost! Anything you'd like to do - have fun!

Want to fanbind? Need davy boards/book boards and low on funds? I have an excellent hack for you:

Repurpose shitty books

"But!!!" You may say, "no book is shitty! All human experiences are worth putting to paper!"

You're right! But, also, Counterpoint:

I went to my local thrift shop and got these for the low price of $5 for all 10. ("Getting into politics?" The lovely ladies behind the counter asked me. "In a manner of speaking," I replied.)

Once I got home, it was easy to turn them into this, their component parts:

("Please stop saying you're skinning them," my partner begged. Too late!)

While these are just book boards, diligent deconstruction can even yield headbands, I'm pretty sure - I'll report back on my next trial run.

I cannot overstate the delight I have in giving these covers new life for binding fanfiction, particularly the queer kind.

Happy binding!
