LOST CAUSE INC is a self-initiated project that catalogues the near-moments of activism on social media. This series of books was created by collecting tweets using the hashtags #angry, #problems, and #stop in a database. Then, the books were generated one by one from the data using Basil JS. Each book in the series tells a clean data story in the width of its spine, and a messy human one on its pages.
