That's a really great "slide show essay", i feel like It easily could be turned into an autobiography.
Specially detailing more of the time past, a little more of economical, academic and social context from these past decades from your perspective. I really enjoy this type of "historical chronicle" Steven Heller has a book (might be more) in this style, i don't remember the name in english but it's one that he does several interviews.
Well It might not be that easy to publish but you should give It a try.
Thank you
