This Book Is Going Somewhere!

BA Graduation work
1200 pages heavy book with still images of iPhone videos recorded, during a summer vacation, whenever I was going somewhere. iPhone in hand when walking, in a bag or pocket when biking. The bag, or pocket never suitable for filming out of, occasionally covering the lens, altering the view of the camera. Acetone printed cover, no text inside.

The grid of the book is directly appropriated from the travel guide Politiken’s 'Turen går til Amsterdam & Holland', published in 2000.
