Joi Ito<\/a> published a book, called Freesouls<\/a>.
\nIt is a unique book, and you should definitely hurry and buy it<\/a> (there are only 1024 copies printed with paperback, and a luxury box set of 50 copies).<\/p>\n

I blog about this book not only because I am captured there<\/a>, but because it shows a completely different way of approaching arts, in this case it’s photography and essays.
\nNot talking about the design of the book, which is stunning.
\nWhoever and wherever WANG Zhi-Hong<\/a> and HSU Yu-Wen (the graphic designers) are, I want to congratulate you for your work in creating this masterpiece. I wish I knew you, but I am sure you’ll read my sincere greetings and thanks here.<\/p>\n

Again, it is amazing to see Joi’s creativity in action.
\nI know him for years, and I’m a great admirer of the good things he does for the Internet, and for the world. Sometimes I think that the planet needs just a few more people like him, and all problems will be easier to solve.<\/p>\n

The book Freesouls<\/a> is published by Joi Ito, Christopher Adams and CHIANG Huei-Hsien. It is designed and printed in Taipei. Editor is Christpher Adams, Managing Director – CHIANG Huei-Hsien. MON Ya Feng is Project Manager. Patrick Smith<\/a> is the photographer’s Assistant. TANAKA Miki<\/a>, Yamazaki Fumi<\/a> and YAGAWA Yuki are assistants.<\/p>\n

My book is number 296 (the limited 1024 copies edition is numbered).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
