Sound of Graphics -suunnittelukilpailu
Grafia ry ja Helsinki Design Week järjestävät Sound of Graphics -suunnittelukilpailun yhdessä Sony BMG:n kanssa. Tarkoituksena on suunnitella videotykillä heijastettava maksimissaan minuutin mittainen kuvamaailma musiikkiesityksille. Kilpailun tavoitteena on tehdä musiikin kuuntelusta myös visuaalinen kokemus kun levynkansien merkitys vähenee netistä ladattavan musiikin takia. Kilpailuaika jatkuu elokuun loppuun ja kilpailun tulokset julkistetaan Helsinki Design Weekin yhteydessä.

The Art of the Band T-shirt (Simon Spotlight Entertainment, 2007)
Once, T-shirts were just unadorned undergarments. But with the evolution of screen printing and the birth of band merchandising, T-shirts became so much cooler. Now every band with an ounce of savvy knows the importance of T-shirts not only as a lucrative sideline but also as a means of self-promotion and a way for fans to show their allegiance. The Art of the Band T-shirt is a visual history of that perennial fashion statement, complete with nearly two hundred images of the most important, influential, iconic, and ironic T-shirts. It includes shirt images from artists as diverse as Led Zeppelin, the Ramones, Madonna, Morrissey, Public Enemy, and the Flaming Lips, each with a caption that includes historical background, little-known facts, or an artist’s comments about the design. A fascinating, beautifully illustrated archive for hipsters, fashionistas, serious collectors, and all music fans, The Art of the Band T-shirt is as indispensable and classically cool as the perfect T-shirt.
