Eat me

Article Abstract:

The snack foods industry has come up with innovative packaging designs to attract young consumers. Efforts by engineers, designers and marketers to create snack foods that are appealing to the eyes have led to a whole new discipline called snackitecture. Snackitecture has been generating innovations, limited-edition variations and line extensions of snack foods. However, practitioners of snackitecture are faced with the daunting challenge of making designs that impress both the child and the parent, who are consumers with entirely different expectations.

A transcendent matter

Article Abstract:

Michael Schultz and Gary Koepke were the guest editors for the 1995 annual issue of the SoHo Journal. The Soho Journal is run by the Soho Partnership, a not-for-profit organization started by Henry Buhl. Money from advertising is used to create street-cleaning jobs for the homeless. The theme for the 1995 issue is transcendence and contains a myriad of images and text excerpts from books as varied as the Tibetan Book of the Dead and the Koran. Advertisers are attracted to the glossy, prestigious design journal.

Super fly

Article Abstract:

Aeronautics design expert Burt Rutan has developed the Proteus, an airplane which can attain an altitude of 65,000 feet and stay there for 14 hrs with the two pilots not being required to wear pressure suits. Rutan was the inventor of unusual airplanes such as the Voyager which was able to make the first around-the-world flight without refueling, the Boomerang, an asymmetrical plane designed to counter roll and yaw during engine failure, and the Raptor, an environmental research high-altitude plane.
