"The 8th issue of the series "In My Computer," Command-Shift-4: Screenshots 2001-2014 presents a selection of about 350 images out of the 40,000 screenshots taken by the Austrian duo along its existence. Curated by German designer Diane Hillebrand, the book is born as an e-book translated into paper form. Although both versions of the book can be experienced linearly, as a usual book, they are actually hypertexts that should be primarily navigated hypertextually, clicking on links (in the e-book version) or following notes (in the paper version). In the e-book version, hyperlinks are visualized using icons in 14 different kinds of gray, each of them representing a (hidden) category. But since the surrounding of the icons changes on every page, it's almost impossible to see the exact kind of gray of the icon, and thus deduce the category it represents in the designer's system. This, together with the reader's choices between two links, makes each experience of the book completely different and personal, not a walk through a designed path of any kind. The navigation of the print version is willingly counter-intuitive and hard, and requires concentration and focus, instead of serendipitous clicking."-- provided by distributor.
