About Time Capsule Bókahönnun

Bókin fjallar um sögu grafískrar hönnunar. Hönnuður vill virkja áhorfendur í kraftmeiri frásagnarupplifun og hjálpa þeim á sama tíma að skilja bókina auðveldara. Til þess að halda áhuga áhorfenda, bæta gagnvirkni við bókina, lætur hönnuður bókina líta út fyrir að eiga sér langa sögu sem menningarminjar, þessi bók reynir að leiðbeina áhorfendum að klæðast rykvarnarhönskum og taka upp bursta og stækkunargler, haga sér eins og fornleifafræðingur við rannsóknir sagan. Það er bók sem krefst aðgerða áhorfenda og einnig að vera meðhöndluð og upplifað.
