Hello. I am a book. But Iβm also a portal to the universe. I have 112 pages, measuring 20cm high and wide. I weigh 450g. And I have the power to show you the wonders of the world. π https://t.co/gcmnou1h0f

"I Am a Book. I Am a Portal to the Universe" by Stefanie Posavac+Miriam Quick is not about the existential being of a book. It is a book filled with the stuff that books are made of, a collection of harvested data partly derived from the book itself. https://t.co/nWar9hxoeM

omg I can't believe my Mom came and said hello to me *in front of my friends*... soooo embarrassing! π
Went to my local bookshop @EastGateBooks and bumped into my book with @stefpos, @iamabookonline! So nice to see it on a real life bookshelf.

Every one of my measurements β from the size of my pages, to the height of my type, to the noise I make when slammed shut β embodies a fascinating fact about the universe, down from the very largest scales...

Using all the elements that make a book, well, a *book*, in a completely original way, I blend playful design and data storytelling to introduce scientific concepts to a broad, all ages readership.

Whatβs so special about me? I am *not* a book of infographics. I am an informative, interactive experience, in which the data can be touched, felt and understood, with every measurement represented on a 1:1 scale.

The last of my 2020 quote series is the original and best: this quote from @thebookseller. I wasn't even printed when this was written, yet it manages to capture my essence perfectly. π π https://t.co/bDqg7y8pvM
