marie verdeil<p>BOOK LAUNCH — How to make books more sustainable? <br> <br>→ How to make books more sustainable? Inspired by the image compression on its solar-powered website, Low-tech Magazine squeezed the article catalog of their three-volume book series into just one book. Compressing the content — an editorial and design choice — produces a larger reduction in resource use than printing on recycled paper could ever do.</p><p>→ During this book launch event, we present our "Compressed Book Edition", followed by a public discussion on sustainability in the book publishing business. We also have a number of copies for sale during the event.<br>18:45 Doors open<br>19:00 Book launch<br>19:30 Q&amp;A<br>19:45 Book sale / snacks &amp; drinks / networking / low-tech showcase ;)</p><p>📌 Barcelona — Akasha HUB, Carrer de la Verneda 19 (El Clot)</p><p>📝 sign-up on meetup!

You could see the (temporally) repeating blocks very obviously, and they didn't have a lot of finesse.</p><p>Cinepak was the first one that had some real compression muscle, then Intel Indeo and others.</p><p>I've got a 113-second, 720x1600 video that SHOULD take up 21GB of data raw, but easily compresses down to 16MB, and I can hardly tell the difference.</p><p>That's 1360:1 savings!</p>
