  • integrity of the book VS its disgregation > track the evolution in a timeline / Epub (zipped Vs unzipped),
  • networks of books (and other media) / disgregation of the book in the ecosystem of information > 'augmented epub'
  • annotation in the broadest sense(texts, notes, other media, metadata...) > push and edit contents, in an augmented epub
  • collaboration > social network / allow to merge forks

  • allow piracy (as changing the text) > forks and timeline

How it can be a shadow library on a Git platform?

Using the 'augment Epub', a Git platform would allow working on the unzipped Epub.
In this way, users could:

  • push and edit contents into the 'augmented Epub' (adding folders and other contents).
  • create different versions through forks.
  • merge forks to gather more content
  • track the evolution of a text in its disgregation, from a starting point.
  • maintain the unity of the book while allowing to expand its content (in an augmented Epub). World of reference created from a starting point and from the point of view of a book. Networked book?
  • change the actual content of the book (its main text), without losing the historical starting point, the original text.
  • download the epub zipped to visualize it as unitarian
