The exhibition catalog, the novel in letters, and the fold out book are printed on Cartiera Magnani paper first created in 1404. Produced in Tuscany on a machine dating back to the early 1800s, this handmade cotton fiber paper replicates precisely the paper Napoleon chose for the announcement of his marriage to Maria Luisa D’Austria. The book covers and collector’s box are handcrafted from Nepalese paper coated with beeswax, and tied with thread stained with hibiscus tealeaves and Nepalese beads.

The international language 60-minute film, the Dreamsong short film haiku, and the large fold out book are only available as part of the special edition boxed set.
