Collaborative Book Spread

Here is what I have so far for a collaborative book project centered around the theme of... wait for it... death.

I remember when I was a voice major, the professors would ask a student what the song they just sang (in german/french/etc) was about. If the person had no idea what the song was about, they would typically respond with, "uhh... death?" I guess because it must be the most prevalent and overly-utilized artistic subject.

Where Do Your Taxes Really Go? Infographic

In retrospect, taxes as the subject for an infographic maybe wasn't the most impetuous choice. Taxes are incredibly complicated, and it is difficult to find statistics that agree.

The focus is on where tax dollars are spent. With staggering figures in the billions, I wanted to present the information in the simplest way: Where does One U.S. Dollar go? So if you paid $5,000 in taxes, you could multiply that by $0.17 and determine how much of your taxes went to the National Defense. Really exciting stuff.
