Here you will find the beginnings of a piece of work which com-bines odd bits of text with various visual pieces. The hope is that the finished piece will be made available for sale via perhaps Amazon. It would be both interesting and useful to hear people’s opinions of what I have done. You can find more of work on my blog - f4mmedia.wordpress.com, as well as various youtube channels - f4mmediavideo, futurhood av, pinterest - f4mmedia, behance - futurhoodav and beyond.
