Project Description:

Published annually by Boston University, the Core Journal is a multi-disciplinarian collection of art, poetry, scholarly papers, and essays. I served on the journal for two years, serving as Editor-in-Chief in 2005. For that fourteenth edition, we chose a theme evoking travel journals, i.e., something out of Gulliver’s Travels, thus the fantastically map on the cover. Running the journal was a fun albeit taxing experience; my designwork highlight was including a flipbook Greek trireme at the bottom of each page. As one flipped through the book, the trireme sailed across the page, collided into another ship and sank. No one ever seems to notice these sorts of things in publications, but I love them!
