Edgyness

The thought crossed my mind, how can i make this zine a bit more edgy and daring in its context. Maybe i didn't need to actually say the main protagonist is a mayfly, maybe its up to the audience to make that conscious link. Maybe i could create a zine that seemed to be from the view of a human, but was actually that of a mayfly. This could emote some sort of reaction with the viewer. If they had 24 hours to live, would they do the same? I know a lot of people who if you ask "if you had 24 hours to live what would you do?" their answers would be along the lines of have fun, shag as many people as i can, go mental. But if they could look back and do it differently, these events would surely change because of the guilt and the desire to use that 24 hours a bit better. I wanted to make it so the zine seemed as if the protagonist had human thoughts, human wants, and through this i could make the pages that bit more controversial, more daring.
