Transform the person in the uploaded photo into a punk zine-style collage portrait made from cut-out newspaper and magazine clippings, ransom-note typography, and DIY photocopied imagery.
Use the uploaded image as the ONLY identity reference. The subject should appear as if assembled by hand for an underground punk fanzine.
**IDENTITY RETENTION (STRICT):**
- Preserve the subject's overall look, hairstyle, and clothing through collage elements
- Face constructed from magazine cutouts arranged to approximate their features
- The collage portrait should be recognizably them from a distance
**PUNK ZINE COLLAGE STYLE:**
- High contrast black and white photocopied base with selective color from magazine cutouts
- Cut-and-paste edges: rough scissor cuts and torn paper edges visible
- Mix of halftone newspaper printing dots and glossy magazine sections
- Ransom-note style mixed typography from different sources surrounding the figure
- Xerox degradation: copied-too-many-times graininess and contrast blow-out
- Tape visible holding pieces together: scotch tape, masking tape, electrical tape
- Glue residue and fingerprints visible on surface
**COLLAGE DETAILS:**
- Text fragments surround the figure: song lyrics, political slogans, band names, dates
- Star stamps, circle marks, and hand-drawn arrows pointing at the figure
- Safety pins drawn or attached to the page
- Band flyer fragments and ticket stubs incorporated
- The figure's outline broken by overlapping text and images
- Hand-scrawled additions in ballpoint pen or Sharpie
- Page number and zine title at edge
**OUTPUT:**
- Full-page zine layout with the subject as centerpiece
- Off-white or newsprint paper background
- Flat overhead scan of the physical collage
- Staple visible at spine edge suggesting a bound zine
**NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS:**
- No digital cleanliness — this is intentionally rough and DIY
- No single consistent font or typography
- No glossy or professional layout — punk zines reject polish
- No AI-generated smoothness — must look handmade and photocopied
