There are companies that will do this for you. For example, IMC in WV (http://www.imcwv.com/). They can scan it all to PDF using the image as what you see in the PDF backed up with the OCR'd text. That way the document is somewhat searchable, but you always see the exact scan of the doc when you look at the PDF.
example. It was not provided to show a compression mechanism in which the original image could be compressed. It was intended to show that if you sample randomly, then their algorithm can come up with a highly accurate representation of the original. The implication here is that given current capability to sample, if you apply the new technique, you can get a better image/audio recording using their technique, than you can using the current fixed sampling interval technique, making the image more vivid, or the musical recording more lifelike than current sampling provides.
And another book, which is not really a sequel at

The New Flatland

There was an interesting book called "Planiverse" (If I remember correctly) that tracked the life of a two dimensional being. It tried to show how two dimensional beings might interact, explaining how digestion might work (to have a system like we have would split the 2D being in half), how people would pass each other (Their world looked more like Mario land, with gravity pulling you down to eart at the bottom, whereas in flatland you could roam over the entire flat space). It also covers some science, like how to change rotational speeds of 2D gears, and music, etc. All in all, fairly interesting.
