Wilson is in the kitchen making what he calls 'parfum de vieux livre' — he's following on-line instructions for making perfumes at home, but substituting pages of old books for the recipe's suggested lavender heads and rose petals.
He intends to cut the pages into narrow strips and poke them into a half-full bottle of vodka so that the alcohol will dissolve the smell.
When the book essence is ready, in a few weeks time, he will put it into an old ink-jet cartridge and print the smell onto his BookPatch stickers.
He said he'll start cutting just as soon as the vodka bottle is half empty…
