One of those is Kenya Hara’s Designing Design… I’m still going through it and I’ll post a review or something soon enough…
But for the time being, flipping through it, I was reminded of this amazing showcase of pure design genius… The packaging concept by Japanese Design master Naoto Fukasawa…

So my friends at the Interruptions Team shouldn’t be wondering when will the flood of banana related material will end… It won’t stop until we start making enough [Noise]…
So, until [NOISE] comes out, please mind the banana!…

I think we’ve somehow created a Banana culture of some sort! ‘Objectifying’ Interruptions to a fruit! I don’t know if it would be the same with Noise!
Often people remember Power and Idiom idition by its proportions and toxic green color!
Every time someone wants to mention these issues they illustrate its proportions with hands!
Probably all upcoming editions need to hold independence and ‘character’ somehow.
The other day I met a very nice guy, Ameen Malhas, who mentioned he has sent a copy of Idiom Edition to his friend who was studying Architecture at AUB and upset about status-quo back in Jordan, so he mailed Idiom with a post-it note which said, there is hope!
I wonder if he would’ve done the same thing with ‘Banana’! At least Bananas are proven to be anti-depression fruits!
Happiness is Universal and we’re making lots of Noise soon! thanks Hadi for the post!

Noise will make noise, it’s only logical!
That’s very cool what Ameen did, and i think banana deserves a post-it note, maybe two…
But noise… aaaa3… NOISE will be shouting at his friend from the aramex box!

Not sure how good it is that the banana edition created this ‘culture’ if you can call it that, but i love how each edition can be so connected with a few phrases or ideas as random as they may be and have those things be very much attached to interruptions as a whole
Can’t wait for Noise and hopefully it’ll create a thing of it’s own just like banana did, otherwise you’d be stuck with this banana culture :p
