A Tweet History

Services: Book design, Adaptive design

Do tweets read differently when they are part of a book? Does context change the tone and scope of your ideas? Explore what happens when content that is ephemeral by nature is preserved in printed form. This book is both an archive and an irony; an object that quickly becomes obsolete, given the exponential speed on which online content is generated every day, but also an artifact that is always there to remind you of your brief passage on the overwhelming flood of information.

Odd Publications is an emerging publishing house that re-purposes the ephemeral nature of Internet data into tangible objects of printed form. It was founded in 2018 by programmer Darien Brito and graphic designer Jaap Smit. Driven by information and powered by code.
