The amazing works of art you see in this post were made by Kinsco Nagy. She recreated the Harry Potter books with interactive and stunning artwork as her final school project before she earned her BA degree.
This young woman has an amazing talent, and it makes me extremely joyous to see someone using their talent to make books better. These books are truly special and if they ever go on sale I wouldn't hesitate to buy them.
I hope J.K. Rowling realizes the impact her stories have had on the world. This is one example and there are many more. You have to love Harry Potter to even think of doing something like this, even if it is for a school project.
I am completely in love with these designs. Think of the impact this could have. Making Harry Potter books interactive would make anyone want to read them. They are also glow in the dark! These books are a gift to the world.
As a (nearly) life-long fan of the Harry Potter series, these covers give me hope that love for the series won't die out. The application of a physical art form to the books is such a wonderful idea that I'm surprised nobody has tried it yet, as far as I know. It's almost like using the idea of a children's book, animating the book interactively so that the reader can "participate" in something while reading. I would definitely buy these books as well, not only for the content of the books, but for entertainment purposes as well. I can only imagine how late I would sty up at night just staring at the glow in the dark cover.
