I was asked to create a book using the Artist's Book Ideation Cards developed by Barbara Tetenbaum and Julie Chen. One chooses one of each of the category cards, plus five adjectives, and then creates a work of art that fits the criteria. One can ignore two of the adjectives, and change one of the other cards, if desired. The cards I drew were Found TEXT, Muted or pastel COLOURS, LAYOUT across the folds, Self-generated IMAGE, Multiple colours of PAPER, TECHNIQUE of my choice, Accordion STRUCTURE. The five adjective cards were Elegant or harmonious, Textured, Scientific or research-based, Opposing or contrasting, and Loud.\"--Part 1 of artist's statement, Vamp & Tramp Booksellers (accessed December 8, 2015). ; \"Just the day before I drew the cards, I had seen, in Toronto, two billboards for Koodo Mobile. They spelled (in balloons) CHOOSE HAPPY. I searched for more found text in a variety of magazines. I then tried typing CHOOSE HAPPY in the search box of the public library's catalogue, and came up with How We Choose to Be Happy: The 9 Choices of Extremely Happy People-Their Secrets, Their Stories by Rick Foster and Greg Hicks. Searching for that on the shelves led me to HAPPY AT LAST: The Thinking Person's Guide to Finding Joy by Richard O'Connor, M.S.W., Ph.D and reading that led me to 14,000 things to be happy about by Barbara Kipfer. I have used text from all of these in 'CHOOSE HAPPY'.\"--Part 2 of artist's statement, from bookseller's website . ; \"HAPPY AT LAST was the most interesting to me. O'Connor references recent research on brain plasticity (a topic I have explored as I have a son who has had a brain injury) and posits that, just as the brain of stroke victims and people with brain injuries can be reprogrammed and create new neural connections, so too can anyone reprogram his or her own brain to be happier. O'Connor's text became the linchpin upon which the rest of the random texts could hang.\"--Part 3 of artist's statement, from bookseller's website . ; \"Since I had to make an accordion, and work across the folds, I decided to make a pop-up book. (Also because pop-ups make people happy.) I decided to make the text blocks become the pops and these sculptural pop-ups themselves became the 'self-generated images'.\"--Part 4 of artist's statement, from bookseller's website. ; Baylor's copy is number 5 of 10 and is signed by the artist."},{"label":"Date","value":"D:00 M:00 Y:2015"},{"label":"Publisher","value":"Kingston, Ontario: Transformer Press"},{"label":"Creator","value":"Melhorn-Boe, Lise, 1955-"},{"label":"Title","value":"Choose happy"},{"label":"Subject","value":"Artists' books. ; Accordion foldbooks. ; Pop-up books."},{"label":"Custodian","value":["Baylor University - Arts and Special Collections Research Center"]}],"description":"Choose happy","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/0897eaca-cffe-4bbc-9a25-98fae6cc5f92/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"fa-bookarts-bkk_n7433-4-m45c548-2015_001","height":4592,"width":5911,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/c3f70b36-daef-4471-b712-c5e093e78c1f/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/c3f70b36-daef-4471-b712-c5e093e78c1f","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":2048,"scaleFactors":[1,2,4]}]},"height":4592,"width":5911},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/0897eaca-cffe-4bbc-9a25-98fae6cc5f92/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/c3f70b36-daef-4471-b712-c5e093e78c1f/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}},{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/0897eaca-cffe-4bbc-9a25-98fae6cc5f92/canvas/_2","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"fa-bookarts-bkk_n7433-4-m45c548-2015_002","height":5107,"width":6037,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b7162698-ce6d-40fd-8d82-328345b3d403/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b7162698-ce6d-40fd-8d82-328345b3d403","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":2048,"scaleFactors":[1,2,4]}]},"height":5107,"width":6037},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/0897eaca-cffe-4bbc-9a25-98fae6cc5f92/canvas/_2","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b7162698-ce6d-40fd-8d82-328345b3d403/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}},{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/0897eaca-cffe-4bbc-9a25-98fae6cc5f92/canvas/_3","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"fa-bookarts-bkk_n7433-4-m45c548-2015_003","height":3969,"width":3443,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/622e466d-898d-46b0-bf11-58e23e11753b/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/622e466d-898d-46b0-bf11-58e23e11753b","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"},"height":3969,"width":3443},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/0897eaca-cffe-4bbc-9a25-98fae6cc5f92/canvas/_3","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/622e466d-898d-46b0-bf11-58e23e11753b/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/c3f70b36-daef-4471-b712-c5e093e78c1f/full/300,300/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/logo"}
