Concept Video on the Future of Reading

To me, a book is its own self-contained world. Reading a book opens that world up a fraction, exposing it to the reader’s perspective and expectations. But what would happen to that self-contained world if we could write directly on its pages, read notes others have written in the margins, and have online discussions about the material with classmates or with fellow readers around the world, all within the book’s covers? I envision reading in the future as a much more interactive experience. Watch my concept video on the future of reading, then see the process book to see how it all came together.

Few comments:
- Video is great. Love the visuals and high production standards
- Don’t book groups provide this kind of interaction already? I wouldn’t want this to replace real social interaction.
- I actually like reading books (especially fiction) as a passive activity. Just a time to chill and not think too hard!
