Thesis brainstrom

* Jonathan Safran Foer:

Tree of Codes by Jonathan Safran Foer

He made a new book out of an old one by cutting away words. The Design is really cool and interesting, something I would like to play with as well.


The book is as much a sculptural object as it is a work of masterful storytelling: here is an “enormous last day of life” that looks like it feels.

He used the different colours of text for the english version and the dutch version. So he was able to print two stories on the same page. By using the coloured filters, you could read it in the language of choice.

This would be very interesting to use the thesis I want to make. The book I want to write with the same concept as my work. Telling one event through different point of views. On story readable in two different ways.

This idea comes from my diary, where I use to write in a lot. But I never wrote the things that were important or really were bothering me. I would like to make a book where you can read both stories.
