Boon Design is proud to announce a new publishing imprint, named Extracurricular. We plan to publish work by artists and makers we admire and collaborate with. The name comes from our creative activities that exist outside of our design practice.

LX(RMX) Lisbon Remixed

LX(RMX) is a new project commissioned by disquiet and a sonic companion to Jorge Colombo’s 2009 exhibition entitled Lisbon Revisited. LX(RMX) offers the sounds of the city reconstructed by 8 (or 16?) musicians inspired by Álvaro de Campos, a heteronym of Fernando Pessoa. Boon created a 16-page digital booklet for the compilation, including images from the exhibit that inspired this project—available for free download from archive.org. The cover is in fact a remix of Colombo’s photography.

INSTAGR/AM/BIENT

Instagram has become one of my daily rituals, a way of sharing moments with friends and documenting my obsessions: typography, food, architecture. The immediacy and restrictions are part of Instagram’s inherent charm. I was thrilled when Marc Weidenbaum of disquiet.com, a frequent collaborator of mine (see Another Time, Another Way) invited me to create a visual accompaniment to his recently commissioned compilation entitled INSTAGR/AM/BIENT.

Another time, another way
