Generation X: the placeholder generation

In this project I am examining, the economic, political, and social conditions that created the movements behind generation x in the 80s and 90s. I will be examining music and art as well as photography in order to tell a holistic story about the people.
Learning Outcomes:
In this project I am using a restrained typographical approach to tell the story of generation x and I learned alot about the typography and the process of making an editorial. I learned alot about indesign techniques.
