- Notes:
"Wild girls redux: an operator's manual is the revisit of a book created almost 12 years ago. The original book, How to Become One of the Original Wild Girls, was designed and printed in 1997. That book is a playful list of imaginary 'rules' that 'should' be followed to achieve Wild Girl status. The rules are light-hearted, but they have the sting of recognition that most women realize to be sexist in nature. Wild Girls Redux reexamines these issues, using motorcycle road and driving rules as text along with images of pin-up girls and industrial schematic illustrations. The tactile materials of the book include pink heart paper doilies, white doily placemats, flocked paper covers, and green office ledger papers. The intent of the "Operator's Manual" is tongue-in-cheek and provides the ordinary, mechanical, and absurd rules of how to operate women.... Cover is flocked paper in maroon. Binding is an accordion portfolio cover with two pamphlet structures sewn in.... Each book comes with with a set of stickers, kept inside a yellow office mailing envelope decorated with a wrap-around belly band."--Publisher's web site (viewed Oct. 14, 2009).
