Remembering The Zoetrope Workshops (March 1998 - June 2025)

The Virtual Studio (R.I.P.) was envisioned by Francis Ford Coppola and built by Tom Edgar.
It was a hotbed of creativity, socializing, and networking for many years.
ZoBooks documented that outpouring of creativity and served as a collective tribal memory.

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
