The Sun is its father
The Moon its mother
The Wind hath carried it in its belly
The Earth is its nurse
### Photography and Illustration
Unless otherwise stated, all photography, illustrations and other type of visualisations in this publication are created by the same authors as the text. That which is below is like that which is above and that which is above is like that which is below, to do the miracle of one only thing.
### Digital Tools
This book was created with the help of a collection of not-so-small and extremely sharp open source tools, to name a few: paged.js, pandoc, pdfimpose, pdftk, and our darling demon Inkscape. So was the world created. From this are and do come admirable adaptations where the means is here in this.
###Printing and Binding
Just lil old us.
### Typeface
Work Sans by Wei Huang.
Consolation by us.
That which I have said of the operation of the Sun is accomplished and ended.
