I got this via at the Serpentine marathon last year. Just cracking it open since I’m getting interested in world building. Yo is this supposed to be read in a particular way? (Also, thanks for my copy 🙂)

I remembered I had this book after this tweet soliciting portal examples blew up. Ian probably has a theory of portals in the book. I will look.

What physical embodiments of portals between worlds have been imagined in sci-fi/fantasy? My starter list: Rabbit hole (Alice) Subtle knife (dark materials) Wardrobe (Narnia) Phone booth (Doctor Who) Platform 9 3/4 (Potter) Wormhole with gate (Stargate)

Do you know Ian’s work? Really amazing stuff, both in terms of visual style and the simulation concepts behind it.

just flip around, it has a linear structure but lots of sketches/charts/images collaged together - i found it fascinating to see so much pre-production and theory behind his work which i had guessed was more random and intuitive

I do not understand what this book is about, but I just ordered it because I am fascinated by what I’m imagining it’s about.
