I wonder how much of what is included here will be in the book.

Edit: I has been years since I read this. Started reading it after I posted it. Most definitely a majority of this would have to be included in some aspect.

“interested in challenging the form and making the book a multidimensional experience. There is a kaleidoscopic frame of reference, and it asks a reader to keep up.”

I hope its not too difficult to read... I'm looking for the info more than I am an artistic statement, personally. Like a magazine format or some kind of weird non-sequential thing would be a little disappointing. Multidimensional could mean alot of things though. My guess is that it will will involve text, photos, sounds, perhaps internet links. Or perhaps it will be kinda like the audio commentaries, with an accompanied program of photos(?)

its foolish to even speculate, i know. shit will be a real treat though, thats for sure

I'm imagining a colorful beastie pop up book with intricate design by their artist and photographer friends...

whether there will be new music or not, this gives fans so much to look forward to.

and it looks like Mike and Adam will be keeping busy for the next couple of years.

2011-2015- seems about right for a legit beastie boys release.
