But you actually selected one of the most artistic sort of graphic design teams there are because you chose Eminem Paris, who are known for their work with predominantly like people like Björk, who again is like a visionary communicator through the visual image.

What was that like?

And how come you chose them in particular?

Yeah, yeah.

Is there a way of like putting images together in a book that was like satisfying for you?

Could you bring out different sort of themes or?

Oh, I really hope that show happens.

I mean, that would be such a beautiful thing.

Yeah, I should send you them.

They're so beautiful, honestly.

He's extraordinarily talented.
