axidermied deer heads. High school football players. Birds in flight over the bayou. These are just a few of the motifs that populate the pages of Ain’t—Bad Magazine’s eighth issue, The American South. A publication that began in 2011 as a group of undergraduate art students at Savannah College of Art and Design creating an online community to discuss the work of their peers, Ain’t—Bad has developed into a respected journal celebrating fine art photography, with a focus on young and emerging photographers. Of the five original founders, Taylor Curry and Carson Sanders remain in Savannah, and, together with their fellow editor Dr. Lisa J. Young, and a staff of editorial assistants and interns, continue to produce and evolve Ain’t—Bad. Curry and Sanders sat down to talk with us about the magazine, photography, and the South. With their The American South issue boasting a print run of 700—up from the 100 digitally printed copies of their first issue—Ain’t—Bad has established itself as a name synonymous with quality, fine art, and photography in the Southeast. In this digital age, we asked why Ain’t—Bad remains committed to print.

It is the very realities of print media that have also commoditized it in recent years. With the digital publishing trend, books and magazines themselves become objects of increasing rarity and increasing value. The printed copy can, in the right hands, become an art object in itself. Curry and Sanders enjoy this aspect of print publication, and appreciate the permanence of the print, and its ability to be collected and archived.

his D.I.Y. is a great way to put old clothes to new use! Jersey knit, as we used here, will curl in on itself when stretched, and a polyester/spandex blend will lay flat-choose the material based on the look you want. Follow our instructions to create a boho-inspired necklace and earring set that will complement your fall look perfectly!

STRETCH OUT EACH STRIP OF FABRIC SO THAT IT WILL CURL AT THE EDGES

step three

MEASURE YOUR PREFERRED LENGTH OF CHAIN TO FIT YOUR BODY & CUT WITH WIRE CUTTERS)

step four

TIE THE FABRIC IN A SLIPKNOT BEGINNING AT THE CENTER OF THE CHAIN. MAKE SURE YOUR KNOTS ARE TIGHT SO THAT THEY WILL BE STURDY. CONTINUE ADDING THE STRIPS OF FABRIC TO EITHER SIDE, TIGHTENING AND ADJUSTING THEM AS YOU GO.

ONCE ALL 9 STRIPS HAVE BEEN ATTACHED, LAY THE NECKLACE FLAT AND BEGIN TO CUT AND SHAPE THE FRINGE. I PREFER TO ANGLE THE FRINGE SO THAT THE STRIPS ON THE OUTSIDE ARE SHORTER THAN THE STRIPS IN THE CENTER. HOWEVER, YOU CAN MAKE THEM ALL THE SAME LENGTH OR MORE ABSTRACT.

THE LAST STEP IS TO ATTACH THE LOBSTER CLAW CLASP USING THE SPLIT RINGS AND YOUR FLAT NOSE PLIERS. SIMPLY ATTACH A SPLIT RING TO ONE SIDE AND CLOSE IT SECURELY. THE OTHER SPLIT RING IS USED TO ATTACH THE END OF THE CHAIN TO THE LOBSTER CLAW CLASP.

BEND THE WIRE ACROSS TO WRAP/TWIST IT. AFTER TWISTING IT ONCE, MAKE ONE END OF THE WIRE STAND UP STRAIGHT AND THE OTHER CAN CONTINUE TO WRAP AROUND AND FORM A COIL. CUT OFF ANY EXCESS WIRE FROM THAT END.

TAKE YOUR ROUND NOSE PLIERS AND FORM A LOOP WITH THE OTHER END OF THE WIRE. WRAP IT ALL THE WAY AROUND UNTIL THE LOOP IS SECURE. CUT OFF ANY EXCESS WIRE. THE LAST STEP IS TO TAKE YOUR FLAT NOSE PLIERS AND ATTACH THE LOOP OF THE EARRING TO THE LOOP ON THE EAR WIRE. REPEAT STEPS 4 - 9 TO FINISH YOUR SECOND EARRING, AND ENJOY!
