Scope and Contents

The text of Minsky's book describes in computer type and illustration the actual thought process and physical creation of his book Pop Delusions. It also has his friends' comments on Facebook as the work proceeds. Minsky writes "A complete photographic record of the construction includes the conceptual, technical, and aesthetic decisions made along the way." A Chinese bill is included in each book; muliple bils are used in the construction of the house along with Minsky's credit cards. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
