'This Book is a Camera' Pop-Up Novel Pages Creatively Turn into the Device

Moving beyond the singular function of a book is the 'This Book is a Camera' pop-up novel that features pages that creatively fold into a fully functional camera. The book dives into the history of photography while simultaneously offering readers with a camera embedded in the book's pages for them to experience the material.

'The Book is a Camera' takes reading to a new level of interactiveness with pages that double up as reading material and the parts of a camera. The pages are creatively designed to be read and after put together to create an analogue black and white film camera. The concept is similar to creating a shoebox camera using paper and simple folds. The book page camera has the ability to capture focused, yet low resolution, illustrations at the press of a button.
