half, but now you can see the effects of his high-pressure waterjet
cutter up close in this photo-heavy volume. Five themed chapters
include everything from a laptop to a novelty fish singing
toy."

"Designer, inventor, and fabricator Mike Warren decided to look
inside pretty much any object he could get his hands on. Rather
than simply using a screwdriver to open them up, he opted to use a
state-of-the-art, 60,000-psi water jet cutter to slice them in two.
Cut in Half, the book, exposes 'The Hidden World Inside Everyday
Objects, ' from boom boxes to boxing gloves. To accompany the
stunning photographs [by Jonothan Woodward], Warren describes the
inner workings and materials of each item."
-My Modern Met

Hidden World Inside Everyday Objects, a book of mesmerizing

Accompanying each photograph are explanations from Warren, who has

objects."

Warren."
--Real Simple
"Warren's YouTube videos showing him cutting open power drills and
soccer cleats proved so popular that he ended up creating a
dedicated channel just for them. To date, he has sliced up more
than 80 objects, several dozen of which are included in deluxe
photobook, featuring photographs by Jonothan Woodward and
annotations by Warren. Although he's cut open iPhones, DSLR
cameras, and laptops, one of Warren's favorite object autopsies was
the humble clothing iron."
