Information Graphic Visionaries : behind the scenes
Early tomorrow morning, Tuesday, we are launching Information Graphic Visionaries on Kickstarter.
You can sign up on Kickstarter through the below link to be notified the moment that the crowdfunding campaign goes live. We have 100 "super early bird" rewards (27% discount) available and 300 "early bird" rewards (19% discount). Pledging early does not only afford you these rewards, it is also the most impactful time to help our book series gain notice. Thank you for your consideration:
Tonight, on the eve of the campaign launch, I want to take you behind-the-scenes to reveal how we researched the series.
Our Approach
We researched rare collections...
including:
We made discoveries and found lost graphics, ...
Preview of diagram drawn by Nightingale and lost Emma Willard time map.
established complete visual catalogs ...
Florence Nightingale Crimean War diagrams.
with new archival photography ...
all editing and designed into books as:
Essays and annotations that take readers behind the scenes to understand stories and new discoveries.
Actual size reproductions of information graphics that display the richness of their craft.
I could never do all of this by myself. Information Graphic Visionaries is brought to you by an international team of historians, scientists, and designers. More about them in the campaign, tomorrow!
Coming Soon
Thank you for all of your support in helping me realize my dream of making these beautiful books become real.
After I wake up at 5AM tomorrow morning to turn on the campaign, I will send you a short email letting you know it is live. After that, I plan on returning to the more regular cadence of this newsletter.
Until then, thank you for your enthusiasm.
Onward! -RJ
