Here is my final handmade 3d book. It consists of three small handmade booklets, two of them as flipbooks. I chose the number 3 because it has great relevence in Life Of Pi. Each book represents one aspect of Pi's religious beliefs and one aspect of his journey; Islam, Hinduism and Christianity, a journey, time and ever-present danger.

Periculum is the Latin word for danger. This is Christianity and the tiger, its tail a flashing warning sign when the book is flicked.

समय is the Hindi word for time. This one is Hinduism and the unstoppable passage of events, and what could be the sun or the moon rises when the book is flicked. Pi loses track of time entirely in the story, but it still goes on.

This is a symbol found in the Qu'ran meaning meander. This represents Islam and the wandering nature of Pi's journey, his lack of control over where the sea takes him.
