I began trading the little books for essays in March 2006. I've been asking people to write around 500 words inspired by September 11th Flipbook. All of the accepted responses get posted online in the order received (see list below). I'm currently working on a regular size book, combining the written texts, with flip frames in corner of the page. For now this art speak for itself.
