DGR is built on top of We Feel Fine - which is a gorgeous piece of work from Jonathan Harris and Sep Kamvar. If you've not seen it, it's an aggregation of bloggers who use the phrase
"I feel ...." followed by an emotion, like Happy, Sad or Grumpy etc etc.
They now published a book based upon the project along with an interactive version online. Free PDFs of the pages too -- that's nice.
There's also some nice plates in there about the semantics of emotions.
And some history on smart folk who studied emotions.
I really like this approach - making books out of an API and presenting the bigger picture of the artworks discoveries and history. It's like an interview with the artwork rather than the artist.
Anyway, it's available on all good online retailers. Links are on the site.
