Still, I have So Many Great Photos for the book. I’m really excited for you to see them. And this part of the work should be finally done within weeks… and then the next newsletter comes!)

Fun fact: There are 26 Easter eggs in the book. I don’t know what that says about anything.

There are over a 1,000 photos in this prototype and they *all* look good and they are *all* chosen deliberately and they *all* help to tell the story. Today this is the thing I’m most proud of.pic.twitter.com/Z4iB01s0T5

It’s not even that there are things in the book that are pretty rare, and good photos of which never graced the Internet. The book will also have realistic 3D renders of things that couldn’t be shown before, or renders of keyboards that are no longer with us.

BTW my promise! Some time after the book launch, I will release tons of PDFs of work in progress/prototypes for people interested – and I will also put all the photos I took for the book on Wikimedia Commons, for everyone to use.

That looks great! It appears to be two volumes?

Yes! I ended up with tons of photos (might be close to half/half against text area-wise!), and this way each volume can still be held in hand, grabbed and put into a backpack, etc.
