"A heart made of 51 books on love. From the love of Botany to paperbacks with covers of cheesey illustrated chest baring Fabio looking men on top of a moutain with their lover grasping their leg in a torn gown. Those were the books that one Aunt would read one after another."(via Coudal)
After organizing our bookshelf almost a year ago (http://youtu.be/zhRT-PM7vpA), my wife and I decided to take it to the next level. We spent many sleepless nights moving, stacking, and animating books at Type bookstore in Toronto (883 Queen Street West, (416) 366-8973).
Dieses ca. 120 Seiten lange Buch ist eine Transkription (Abschrift) der Pro7-Fernsehshow Germany's next Topmodel 2011 – Das Finale. Jeder Rotz, jeder menschen-verblödende Schund, jedes sexistische und von Maschen durchtränkte Blabla, das in diesem ohrenbetäubenden Massenspektakel geprädigt wurde, ist hier feinsäuberlich abgetippt und in Dramenvers gesetzt.

The book was published in late 1989, based on a tour and interview session at Nintendo of Japan in July of that same year (this will become evident in a later picture). They interview Shigeru Miyamoto, Koji Kondo, all the major players in Nintendo's games. The Stars of Famicom Games – How Video Games are Made
