Description A project on phobias. The illustrations had to be 6cm x 6cm so i put them together so i didn't have to submit them separately. I presented the images in a book which looks a bit nicer than this presentation! I did most of the images in collage and it was surprising at the strange phobias that exist!

top left to right - phobia of japan, phobia of england, phobia of computers

bottom left to right - phobia of large things, phobia of greek terminology or scientific terms, phobia of numbers

ok to try and reply to everyone...

i'm not sure if it's chinese or japanese, i riped it out of a book i bought second hand from the library! i wouldn've reserached into it to check if it was japanese but i didn't have time and that kind of paper is hard to come across where i go to uni so i just used it!

on the england one it's not meant to be the french flag, just the colours that are in the british flag, but now you've said that it does look like the french flag lol! but hopefully it comes across as english.

they're not phobias i have, we just had a project on phobias and i picked the ones i wa most interested in!

thanks for all the comments everyone!!

this would be fantastic if the Japanese section wasn't CHINESE.
seven out of ten, poins off for language confusion.

P.S:
I have phobia of numbers, myself. It sucks, numbers are EVERYWHERE. Fear of Japan, is okay, just don't live there, but being afraid of numbers- THEY NEVER GO AWAY!

what is phobia of numbers exactly? i mean, are you just afraid to see numbers? or afraid to use them, like in mathmatical terms? just curious.

turtlecage In reply to BloodyAlaizabel [2006-12-18 02:33:49 +0000 UTC]

well, it'sweird. Every time i have to work with numbers, I get really anxious, like I fidgit and I start to hypervhenilate. It's not like i'm SCARED of them, they just gross me out, in a way.

Chinese and Japanese both use kanji...

ConcreteTree In reply to Ichichi-Kun [2006-12-17 03:45:59 +0000 UTC]

Chinese is kanji.

The paper is probably from some chinese newspaper. Not japanese.
If it was a japanese newspaper, there'd be katakana and hiragana. I'll shut up now.

Yeah, along with katakana and hiragana, which isn't there. If you speak Japanese, and it's right, but I've got a degree in it and I can read that.
