PIXELS OF YOU - ON SALE FEBRUARY 9th, 2022! "A sweet, smart tale of art, bitterness, enmity, and camaraderie." - Cory Doctorow, New York Times Bestselling author of Attack Surface In a near future, augmentation and AI changed everything and nothing. Indira is a human girl who has been cybernetically augmented after a tragic accident, and Fawn is one of the first human-presenting AI. They have the same internship at a gallery, but neither thinks much of the other’s photography. But after a huge public blowout, their mentor gives them an ultimatum: work together on a project or leave her gallery forever. Grudgingly, the two begin to collaborate, and what comes out of it is astounding and revealing for both of them. Pixels of You is about the slow transformation of a rivalry to a friendship to something more as Indira and Fawn navigate each other, the world around them—and what it means to be an artist and a person. #BookTrailer Written by Ananth Hirsh and Yuko Ota of the award-winning Bararbous. Illustrated by J.R. Doyle Coloring and Lettering by Tess Stone Video Editing by Strucci - @plentyofalcoves Preorder Now - http://johnnywander.com/pixels " In this quietly paced character study with a cinematic feel, a melancholy atmosphere slowly blooms into something warm and hopeful amid news headlines documenting concerns about implicit bias in AI." - Publishers Weekly "The robot/human relationship serves as a reflection on managing cultural alienation, and the girls’ chemistry is well developed, building to a surprising, sweet conclusion. Hirsh and Ota’s story is a combination of broad narrative strokes and intimate moments, and Doyle’s manga-inspired, deliciously purple and pink illustrations float with ease through a near-future New York." - School Library Journal "Ultimately a short but sweet story about two girls slowly falling in love. . .The art, however, is striking, with bold, stark colors; plays on light and dark; and disrupted frames depicting photos and extending emotional moments." - Kirkus
