This is the signed and numbered Limited Collectors Edition of my art-book “Enslaving Humanity in Style”, a high quality collectors item for my most loyal fans and collectors of books. I decided to publish this Limited Edition with Design Studio Press alongside the trade edition of the book. The Limited Edition is a celebration of the work i created over the past 9 years. A huge collection of virtually all robot concepts that i created to this day packed in an amazing looking matte black slipcase. I love the weight of this thing, the paper quality and weight and also how the book and slipcase create this dark eerie unit.
(If you are looking for he standard trade edition of the book you can get here: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/daytoner-daniel-hahn/1143145528 or directly from my start page)
There are only 333 copies of this collectible version of my book world wide. We will not reprint this Limited Edition. The Limited Edition of “Enslaving Humanity in Style” is only obtainable through myself if you meet me at trade shows, comic cons or special events that i will promote on my socials - and of course here!!! I will sign each one and send each book out personally to you.
Summary:
This book takes you on a journey into the Daytoner universe. It's a vast place, inhabited by killer robots, augmented humans and urban ninjas. Meet Daytoner's trademark characters, and, for the first time ever, dive into their bewildering backstories. Read the angry email of a middle manager at a transnational arms manufacturing mega-corporation! This book's unique, playful mix of science-fact and science-fiction revolves around war and peace, love and hate, money and power, religion and revolution - in short, it's the human condition, but with robots! In short text snippets and broad-brush-stroke vignettes, the book also points towards some of the most fundamental spiritual, ethical and legal questions facing humankind in the 21st century: What does it mean to be human in a world of ever-faster technological change? Should we do a thing, just because we can? And, most importantly, what's going on in Post Berlin's Dark District? Hello human, welcome to the Daytoner universe!
Feedbacks surrounding my art book:
”Daniel's creations are so memorable and with such strong visual impact. His work is one of a kind. From the amazing character's silhouette to the incredible mechanical details; everything is so meticulously thought out.”
Jerome Platteaux, Epic Games
“Daniel's work is the most thoughtful, imaginative and intricate version of every weird little robot that's been crawling around in my head all my life. Every page, another creation, another character with another story to tell.”
David S. F. Wilson, Love, Death + Robots
”If I'd pursued a graphics career instead of becoming bewitched by music, I'd probably be trying to make work like Daytoner's. It's the stuff my sci-fi dreams are made of. It was fantastic to work with him for our Pleasure Model video with Former and Khomatech. Super sick.” Nik Roos, Noisia

Note:
There is international shipping for this item! That was important to me.
Nevertheless, I am sending this Edition out by myself so i have to rely on shipping costs provided to me for international shipping.
I am aware that this is a lot of shipping costs for some places, but i cant change that.
For Europe there is a small customs fee in place at the moment which has to be paid at the time of pickup.
Please send me a note if your country is not in the list - i will add it!
Hope you like how the book came out as much as i do!
I am stoked! Looks absolutely amazing!
Best,
DTNR
