Pushing photographs into a new dimension with page extensions, movement tabs and pop ups.


These photographs appear in Jack Simons' book of photographs.  The photographs freeze frame single moments in time, sometimes surreal, sometimes bizarre.  They display a fascination with the amazing world we live in, down alleyways, in museums, on public transportation, always on the less frequented path.   The versions in this altered book take them into another dimension with page extensions, movement tabs and pop ups.
