In a world where the only constant is change, a printed book is a frozen memory of a moment in time. It holds our thoughts, plans, ideas and fears from a time that has passed and helps us remember how things once were...
It is something like fantasmagoria performance in the era of cinema, like electricity-eating lamps in the save-the-energy era, like fast food in health club. Isn't it?
A book is something we will dust off one day, browse and remember the good and old days...
Some of us are trying to save energy and forests, some of us take care of pollution around and water consumption. From the one hand printing books is an industry where people are making money and cutting trees, from the other hand, book is something so close, so familiar, so part of history, that you think you can not exchange with computer analog.
With good thought I plan to plant a tree for every book I buy, with good thought I want people to continue writing books and to make them in both electronic and real versions.
Which book are you reading now?
