Expensive, I know. This is a small-batch coffee table book from an artisanal printer. Any profits from the project will be shared with the strangers who gifted their wisdom.

Description

200 pages of stranger’s wisdom, robot’s reactions, and the beautiful moments in between. The book was exquisitely designed and lovingly crafted in Italy. We are proud of our sustainable choices: procuring recycled or FSC-certified paper, producing with equipment optimized for reduced energy consumption, and packaging in biodegradable shrink wrap.

Free Copies

I want this work to be accessible to everyone. The books are pricey because they were expensive to produce. If the price tag is cost-prohibitive for you, email me at talktoando@gmail.com with a request for a free copy and a short note about why you are excited to read it. We’ve set aside a portion of the inventory for this purpose. Since launch, we’ve gifted dozens of copies at no cost. Our only ask is that you share anything meaningful you learn with others.

Profit Share

We’ve opened a profit share program to compensate any contributors who would like to participate. Each contributor to this project has been contacted, to the best of our tracing ability, with an opportunity to provide input and to share in any value created from the work. This applies to both the source artists and the strangers who gifted their wisdom. Many remain who we could not track down or who have not replied to our outreach. The invitation remains open and is just an email away. talktoando@gmail.com. It is probable that this project will not generate a profit, but if it does, it will be shared.
