Many of the publications are hyperphotos, such as the Zine, the 2019 and 2022 progress reports, the Front shelf, the Roots, the Publications binder itself...


Initial prototype. Making the web page for the Progress report (2019), featuring Recognition Kit, Snapshots, Tiny dotframes, collections, replicas...

Later, revised and put to use with hand-drawn links in Publications (2023).

Later, automatically-recognized links in Front shelf (2023).


A joyful hyperphoto story.
