The writing and artwork was generated by a collaborative group of 15 graphic designers, fine artists, illustrators, writers, and film students from Art Center College of Design under the advisement of Lisa Wagner and Benjamin Weissman.

A supplementary website for the publication catalogs additional full-color art and bits of writing here.
