"looking back at things you have posted on facebook from 4 years back and thinking that must have been a different person back then. :P"

Duckface is an artist's book collecting Facebook statuses from the author's newsfeed, written variously by his Facebook Friends in late 2014.
Immortalised in print, the Facebook statuses become an absurd poetry, their original meaning and context forgotten. Duckface also provides the ideal analogue antidote to being stuck without WiFi.

Available on Blurb
