“And, for an instant, she stared directly into those soft blue eyes and knew, with an instinctive mammalian certainty, that the exceedingly rich were no longer even remotely human.”
William Gibson, Count Zero. (1987)
The Institute garden is parched. We are doing our best to keep it alive. Meanwhile, our work progresses.
Hello! How are you doing?
You know that thing you do? I really enjoy you posting about it.
Keep it up. You’re doing great. 👍🏼
Having to update my blocked word list to stay sane.
So the idea of Bookhouse is basically inspired by this book from 1979 called ‘Masquerade’ by an artist called Kit Williams.
He hid a golden hare in the UK and wrote this book and filled it full of paintings as the clues to where the treasure is buried.
I’m trying to do the same. But different.

The Bookhouse Institute does not use AI. Why would we use the slop machines? We use tarot cards if we want to add abstractions into creativity and self-reflection.
With the world going to shit in a shit basket, working at the Bookhouse Institute and its weird projects is the way I stay sane.
Happy Friday everyone. I have a couple of articles up in what I might be calling my magazine. Just a couple of things I am interested in. Check them out here:
Where can I find archived recordings of the old UK TV show Treasure Hunt (with Anneka Rice / Annabel Croft)? From 1982-1989
Please share!! Thanks in advance!
Slowly documenting things from the Bookhouse archives. Up first: a couple of microhunts that I have been sharing online to be solved.
Backup phone now set up as a Bookhouse Institute phone. Means, other than creating things using my laptop, I should be able to run the Institute from this one phone.
I would like to see that in action. So let’s try it for a bit.
