Some folks worry that the digitization of our daily lives will make us
disembodied ghosts. They fear that we’ll become fat lumps of tissue
plugged into some giant machine, and that our souls and minds will
migrate to cyberspace, where our egos will drift as mere whiffs of
electrons. We’ll work, play, shop, and live online, and the real world —
the physical world and all its pleasures — will rot.
The project takes three vast networks and weaves them together.
It begins with the oldest peer-to-peer network we have — face-to-face
exchanges — and then adds our second-oldest network — the postal
system — which is cheap, truly global, and able to move tangible, very
physical artifacts, like books, to anywhere in the world. Someguy
leaves blank journals in random places, or mails them to strangers, with
instructions to create personal pages inside them and pass them on to
other strangers. That’s a great recipe for wonderful serendipity. But on
top of these two robust networks of one thousand moving journals,
Someguy added the new global network of the Web, which is able to
track and enliven the digital ghosts of the traveling books.
These handcrafted works of art now have both a body and a mind.
They are deeply rooted in the sensual materials used to create them:
paper, ink, found objects. But they also live the life of a mind as they
are queued, monitored, and set loose into the collective consciousness.
“us” — the hive
In a very real way, these books are written and drawn by works
mind _ rather than one person. No individual artist chooses who
on a book; rather, the choice emerges out of the crowd. But unlike
can
previous collective art projects, with this new online network, we
watch the hive mind at work. We can watch the collectiv e thinking out
loud and assembling the sequence within a book and among books.
We can watch it remember and watch it forget, as it abandons thoughts
and books and then later revisits them.
It’s this newfound ability for the project to watch itself that gives it
a tiny glimmer of self-consciousness. From our perch in front of the
screen, we can watch ourselves say something as a collective, and we
can see half-formed thoughts begin to move through the network as
they are assembled, page by page, into a lasting work of art.
If all the finished journals came to rest in one place, it would not
contain the full project. Only the interactive Web can do that. Part of
the project is the anticipation, worry, and joy of tracking the books
on their journeys. Part of it is the mystery of when a book goes dark.
And part of it is simply the energy of a book in motion. Mostly, the
project resides in watching, and the self- reflection that the Web inter¬
face enables. All this will be missing when you gaze upon the bound
pages of a journal.
Then what about this book you’re holding in your hands? It is the
thousand-and-first journal, a compilation extracted from the other
books, a journal derived from watching the roaming, growing trail
of pages. It acts like a self- reflection of the project, a thought about
the other thoughts, a meta-book about books. It employs the same
associative logic between its pages as the thousand other journals,
but this thousand-and-first journal is the first completely finished
book in the series. As you will witness in the pages that follow, its
glorious combination of diary, visual wit, intense expression, and bril¬
liant cleverness reflect the stunning power of the full set of journals.
In a curious way, this compilation may spark many of the unfinished
books to continue on their journey. It may remind those who have
left their gifted book under their bed to move it on, or it may remind
friends of friends to finish their pages. Who can remain inert after
seeing this book of wonders, or hearing of this project?
Someday journals will have chips in them, making their location clearer,
and the task of tracking them easier. Someday the idea of 1000 Journals
will seem so obvious. But you don’t have to wait for someday, because
within the covers of this book are thoughts from the global hive mind
of today.
— Kevin Kelly
Introduction
return. I suppose that’s one of the reasons there are a thousand of them
(that, and it seemed like such an absurd number, I had to do it). Like
baby turtles moving across the sand in a mad dash for the ocean, not
all of them would make it, I knew. With each journal I released, there
came a feeling of anxiety, a fear that I’d never see it again. This was
always followed by hope, though, as I imagined the potential each
journal had, the lives it might touch, and the journey it would take.
Some journals would find their way into closets or storage boxes,
while others would go on tour with bands, rack up frequent-flier miles,
or end up in the middle of a war.
Each journal is roughly the size of this book, with a cover design
mounted on the front and back. It was important for the journals to
be something people would want to pick up, but not so precious that
they’d never let them go (it remains to be seen how well this second
goal was accomplished). Each design appeared on ten of the journals,
for a total of one hundred unique covers. I designed a few, but most
were contributed by well-known and emerging artists from around
the world — including Amy Franceschini of Futurefarmers, renowned
rock poster artist Mark Arminski, illustrator Gary Baseman, and
digital guru Joshua Davis, to name just a few.
Word of the 1000 Journals Project spread, and emails poured in asking
for journals. I started mailing them to folks, spending my weekends
toting grocery bags full of journals to the post office. As people began
to send in scans of their entries, I came to realize the full potential of the
project. The pages were filled with amazing artwork, secret confessions,
political rants, and everything in between. One person shared his experi¬
ences of growing up in Bahrain (V57), while another wrote a letter to a
loved one (*001). Someone cut up a map of Africa and rearranged the con¬
tinent (*438); someone else used spray paint stencils to redesign a journal
cover (*884). Inspirational advice, personal sorrow, anger, love, and pure
creativity poured into the journals and were shared with strangers.
What has happened to the journals is a story itself. They’ve come to rest in
hostels, cafes, and law offices; they’ve been lost and found, forgotten and
remembered. They’ve been the subject of treasure hunts (*354), brought
to remote mountaintops (*323), abandoned at airports (*001), left in the
lost-and-found (*300), and stolen at gunpoint (*949). In journal *587,
someone wrote a heartfelt apology and then sent the journal to the friend

Journal 463
Minneapolis, Minnesota
It was on that trip that I planned to send '*463 on its merry way across
Europe; when I asked the proprietor of the English bookstore in Antibes
to take it off my hands she refused. Maybe I didn’t do a very good job
of explaining whar this project was all about or maybe she thoughr rhat
some hardship or cost was involved. In any event, the journal made two
transatlantic flights in my bag and was never set free in France as I
had hoped.
Journals Project, you ask. Like every journal I’ve ever had (and I’ve kept
a written journal since I was twelve, circa 1988) I formed an attachment
to the content that I couldn’t quite bear ro part with. In the pages of
*463 is a description ol every bottle of wine we drank, instructions on
how to play the Forehead Game; it’s a record of a time before I turned
my life upside down. Of course I wanted to hold on to it for just a little
bit longer than I should have.
Now, though, my life is changing again and for the better; I’ve finally
reached a place where I am OK with letting that experience and the
record of that experience go. I gave it to the woman who is subletting
my apartment and I hope that she will also use it to document a time
of change in her life.

Journal 354
Our final destination is to rob and pillage Cuba of their hidden gold
reservoirs. It has already been several days since we set out from our post
in Canada (sorry, I can’t tell you more; it’s a secret location), and my
soldiers are already getting restless. We have decided to visit St. Louis for
a while. St. Louis is a fabulous place filled with many strange sights and
wonders. The first obvious landmark is the arch, which, albeit seen as a
tourist attraction and general waste of space, truth be told: at midnight,
it is often used as a trans-dimensional gateway.
The men split apart to study different areas of the land. Cadet Staples,
our experienced guide and eldest of all of us, set off by himself to visit
Forest Park. He plans to visit the great statue of Saint Louis himself,
who (as legend would have it) guards the art museum from evil spirits.
Another group of men have been sent to invade the botanical gardens
to pick exotic floral decorations, which we will use to woo the luscious
Cuban women. The largest group of men went in search of a pub with
good aged rum. They have been instructed to return with no less than
ten barrels. Lastly, I have sent ten men to the city museum (which was
designed by Cassilly, a former crew member of mine) to kidnap a large,
burlap sack full of children to barbecue for our dinner tonight. The
city museum was secretly designed for that specific purpose alone.
Only eight hours have passed since we landed in St. Louis, and already
we are running into problems. Our bookkeeper, Ransom, has spent all
of our money at the President casino. My battalion expert was killed
by the crime lord of St. Louis, rap star Nelly, and hundreds of swash¬
buckling crew members have fallen into an open vortex at the St. Louis
Science Center, which is cleverly disguised as an observatory. To make
matters worse, my boat. The Natasha, was compromised into the hands
of local authorities when a spy tipped them off to our mission. I swear
if I find out who is responsible for this mutiny, I shall cut out his tongue
and feed it to my dogs! I avoided capture by hiding in Dogtown and
I plan to hijack a landship for transportation. This is my last hope.

Tokyo, Japan
The journal came to me somewhat magically in the Kinokuniya
bookstore in the Akihabara district of Tokyo on March 30th. I was
reading a magazine called Brutus when a young Japanese girl
gave it to me. She said her name was Tomoko, but otherwise offered
little information. After I took it, she bowed and scurried off.
On April 2nd, I flew back to the U.S., where I passed through Los
Angeles. Being curious, I delivered the journal in person to the
address in Norrh Hollywood listed on the first page. Nobody was
home so I left it on the doorstep.
day or so to figure out what to contribute (“24 hours”?) but the next
night, at a party, I had a dozen or so of my friends write down three
words, their message to the world. I thought it was a pretty clever idea,
but it didn’t turn out well.

I’d also like to thank the following people: My family, who has
supported me in all of my endeavors, even the misguided ones. Joshua
Swanbeck, for sneaking me into his office on the weekend to print
out that first batch of journal covers. Nate Koechley and Erik Benson,
for helping to create the Web presence, and Charles Mastin, for his
hard work on the next generation of the project, 1001journals.com.
Andrea Kreuzhage for believing in the project, and taking it to places
I’d never imagined possible. Each and every one of the cover designers,
who selflessly gave their time and energy to the project. Ruth Keffer,
for her continued support and advice. Matt Thompson, for his com¬
mand of the English language. Fred Gray, for helping out in tracking
down journal contributors. Hollie Rose, for returning the first journal,
*526. Diane Reese, Michaela Darling, and the other wonderful ladies
for returning the second journal, *550. Leslie Jonath, Kevin Toyama,
Brooke Johnson, Doug Ogan, Evan Hulka, Yolanda Accinelli, and
everyone else at Chronicle Books, for making this book on the craziest
schedule ever. Everyone who emailed me with kind words and
support — you kept me going through the rough times. My friends
