Parody Book (Bored of the Rings)

In order to hold the page down I used some pretty strong rare-earth magnets to hold a tiny ball bearing on top for minimum disruption to the picture, for instance instead of a FINGER.

Stupidly Strong Magnets

Essentially the concept will be a parody of traditional fantasy/fairytale like storytelling, and an opportunity to let off some steam from the formal writing required for my Dissertation.

To go with this, my story needed an image for use as background (or cover), so I seized the moment to do a quick sketch of my concept.

My ‘book’ will be based on rewritten code for my gallery, and made to look as tangible and booklike as possible through the use of styles and fonts.
