Onomatopoeia Magazine Another Magazine, Merz-Akademie, Stuttgart
CONTEST is a magazine about onomatopoeia?!?
Onomatopoeia is a word or a grouping of words that imitates the sound it is describing,
suggesting its source object, such as "peng", "click","oink","boom"... You didn't know that? Fortunately you can
learn something on www.manuelbuerger.com. Anyway, this magazine starts a little competition between
10 different onomatopoeia.
To make it a little bit funny I bought three newspapers (BILD, Suedeutsche Zeitung and Spiegel on
5th December 2006) and tried to find articles that fit nicely with each onomatopoeia. The coolest story was
about a pastor who displaced a NAZI-crowd by ringing the bells of his church.
His name was "Pastor Boom"! Next step was to design a picture refering to the arcticles and oppose it
to the next onomatopoeia on the following side.
So here we go again:
28 Pages. Feat. Vroom, Crash, Bling Bling, Ra-tatatat, Boom, Yea-ah, Splash, Blam, Bang, Pssst.
