Experience an AR-interactive book on healing endometriosis & the path of true freedom

This award-winning book has recently earned acclaim from the prestigious Next Generation Indie Book Awards as a finalist in both categories of Art & Illustration.  It is based on the first year of my Every Phase series.  The complete series will span a total of 13 years.  

You may have heard of "a sketch a day" or other "everyday" projects like the crypto art record-breaking sale of Beeple's Everydays, in which Beeple created an image from start to finish every day for thirteen years. We tend to look at completeness in terms of the 24-hour circadian clock―"the male clock." Testosterone is highest in the morning―notice how we begin work around 9:00 a.m.―and then begins to drop off in the evening around 5:00 p.m. Hence, the 9-to-5 workday. 

Now, nothing against the male biological clock, but the timing of our world is run in a way that's pretty one-sided, benefiting testosterone, and men have done a great job at leveraging and optimizing their biology. Essentially, society is run by a short-circuit battery (the 24-hour male clock) compared to a long-circuit battery (the 28-day female clock), neither one being better, just different. Within the less familiar infradian rhythm clock (your monthly cycle) for women, hormonal completeness lies within every phase, a 28-day series of 4 phases that cyclically repeats: Follicular, Ovulatory, Luteal, and Menstrual. Similar to the cycles of the seasons and the Earth.

BOOK tips + how to interact with the AR

COVER + health resources

✔️ There is a health resources QR code in the back with information on the modalities, doctors and health advocates that helped me heal.  Fingerprints on the cover can be wiped off with a damp paper towel and allowed to dry.

✔️ DOWNLOAD OVERLY APP

Make sure you are connected to Wifi  & make sure the Overly app is updated (before scanning any images)

✔️ IF AN IMAGE WON'T SCAN

Try getting closer to the image or one of the images (if it is on a spread), or move further back.  Low contrast images or minimalist images may not scan well, or may take longer.  When scanning, make sure there isn't a lot of glare on the book, and that the pages are as flat as possible.

✔️ Augmented reality (AR) works in the book & in real life

AR technology recognizes image markers so you can also scan the same interactive images in the book, art prints or on the wall (for hanging art), or on the computer screen.
