Hey everybody!
\xa0
We have something fun for you this week! Announcing our newest experiment,100 Small Surprises, an opportunity to send someone else one of our books for FREE (just pay a bit of shipping). If you know a photographer, artist, or illustrator who would love an art or photo book, this is your chance to put a smile on their face. It really could be anyone you think could use a little more art in their life. We realise people may try to use this for themselves but we have a hunch that a lot more of you will enjoy surprising someone else—that's what we hope anyway! Read more about it below. Be quick! There's only 100 spots.

Thank you to our friends atMonosfor making this possible! With their help, we've set aside a pile of art and photo books so that 100 of you can gift someone a book along with a little message. You tell us what to say and we'll handwrite your note and send it with the book. We would love it if you choose someone who would not expect it, as this is meant to be a surprise!\xa0

For us, these little experiments are what Booooooom is really about. We're always looking for unique ways to get more art out into the world and help people connect with one another, and we're thrilled that Monos wanted to support this!

  1. 📊 Google's look atthe year in search. Interesting to learn that Imagine Dragons has two songs in the top five of the “hum to search” category. Not sure what conclusions to draw from that.
  2. 📖 “Flavorflation”: Food companies are ruining your fav snacks and hoping you don't notice. You may be hyper aware of price increases but it's not quite as easy to spot missing ingredients.
  3. 📖 Merriam-Webster's reveal theirword of the year for 2023is… authentic?
  4. 📖 Did you know there is a worm whose butt forms its own head (and eyes, antennae and brain) and detaches from its body to mate with other detached butts??? Yes, I went down aJapanese green syllid wormrabbit hole. Here'sa videoabout another such worm (don't watch if you don't like worms). This concludes today's science class.
