Getting a new phone is exciting. Until you have to set it up. Suddenly, you’re disconnected for who-knows-how-long, while your new phone transfers all your data over. Aussie telco Belong wanted to help.

The Book of Limbo is an offline online wormhole, designed to keep you entertained while stranded between phones. It channels the wonder of the internet into 120 pages of original art – 3D, illustration, photography and GAN.

The book mimics the internet wormholes we find ourselves falling down that turn in unexpected ways – from the mesmerizing cover to the shifting art styles and textures throughout. Each page even links to the next, spanning whale poop facts, royal conspiracies, and the entirety of Alice in Wonderland. Ending with a free $80 SIM card, to help you explore actual internet wormholes when your phone’s ready. All sustainable materials are locally sourced, and the production’s carbon output is offset.
