| 1-28-07, Time flies when things get hectic. On January 19th at the ICA in Philadelphia at the "Locally Localized Gravity" show the book was officially released to the public. The reaction has been awesome so far, and news is spreading quickly. It will be hitting stores internationally in February. Where can you get it you ask? If you are in the USA, try Urban Outfitters; in Tokyo, Japan try Hanna. More stores will be added, and I'll build a locator page in the next update. Of course you can still buy it right here - right now, online - Buy Now! |
| 1-8-07, I can finally say the book is done! See some pictures above, for glimpes of actual spreads and art. The book will officially be released on January 19th at the ICA in Philadelphia at the "Locally Localized Gravity" show that SPACE1026 and myself are a part of. If you are in Philly, come on out and check out the show, buy a book and have a good time. If you are not in Philly, pre-order the book now, and get it sooner than anyone else. |
| 12-12-06, I have the galleys back from the publisher and things are proceeding along. The book will be availble on January 20th,2007 at the very latest. If all goes well, sooner than that. Anthem Magazine did a nice little write up on the book in their November/December issue. Check that out if you get a chance. |
11-6-06, What's the hold up? you ask. Well I don't have a real answer. The book has been delayed, but only slightly and will be here very soon. I am so sure of this that we are now moving into the pre-order phase. So, click away, buy some books and be the first to get a copy. |
| 9-28-06, The first round is at the publisher. Soon, I'll have the rough in my mits. If all goes well, this thing may just exist this year after all. I have developed a press kit, with some sample pages and images. Contact me for log-in info. |
| 8-30-06, I am burning the disk as I type. I'll be sending it today to the printer. There is still a round or two to go, but this is one of the big steps. I'll be posting some sample pages soon, and now I have to prepare a press kit of some kind. Also, it has come to my attention that the diagram was incomplete. The new one is up there now. |
| 8-4-06, Time is flying by. But the proofreading is done and interviews are transcribed. So, I just need to buckle down and make all the edits and get it off to the printer. |
| 5-23-06, If all goes well the book should be done and available this summer (2006). At this time I'm finalizing words, proofreading, and preparing the images for print. Look here or johnfreeborn.com for news. |
