BOOK
An open-source artist's book tracing the binary footprints of an exiled wanderer and Belgian-made pixels over the course of a seven-year digital odyssey
Synopsis
This artist's book documents the development and growth of awalkaday from its conception in 2017 to its conclusion in 2024. The book's pages are bound with the git-based digital footprints of the photo series, creating a narrative that's as much about the medium as the message.
A unique blend of digital art forms—black-and-white photography, open-source code, social media posts, and non-fungible blockchain tokens—comes together with third-person narration to create an autobiographical work of creative nonfiction. Together, these elements illustrate and trace the history of a photographic odyssey across a range of public spaces and computing platforms.
It is a companion piece to a collection of 263 photographs taken during regular walks in Belgium, Europe. A book that concludes a long-term project by an exiled artist and pioneers a novel approach to publishing digital art. By virtue of the artistic medium, all of the drafts and years of changes are baked into this online edition.
