Goodmorning Everybody !

I need help from you guys and girls ofcourse! to find the right picture

for The boombox exhibition i will present on 8th of December

in a cafe near the center of the town i live!

It will have to be on a leaflet-flyer and a poster for promoting the exhib.

I was thinking of a boombox in an artistic form (stenciled or painted)

But i know that you will have nice ideas too , so i m asking for a little help

Ofcourse everybody is invited and when the flyer and poster will be ready

i will upload it here on S2G !

sounds great Deech, personally i would do something really bright and colourful with a dark background to make it stand out.

also putting sound waves from the speakers is a nice touch.

i look forward to seeing your pics

just need to know when the exhibit is, format of leaflet and poster (A4?; 50x70/100x70?) and in the weekend i'll give you pics and graphic tips 

 I was thinking more or less the same a dark background Lav to make the box

stand out and sound waves would be great as the exhibition will be named

'' The Walls of Sound'' so the waves would be ideal !

The exhibition will be held from 8th of December 2012 until the end on January 2013

nearly for 2 months ofcourse all that if the end of the World will not come according

to Mayas on the 21st of Dec !

The dimensions of the flyer are about 10,5 cm x 18 cm

And the Poster  will be a standard A3 (29,7 cm x 41 cm) Sam !

It is great for taking the time to help me out !

The exhib will have more or less 25 to 30 boxes !

There will be an opening party and a closing party

ofcourse with the appropriate music .

ha ha i forgot about the mayan prediction for 21st december, lets hope they was wrong

mayans couldn't predict their own extinction, so you see how reliable they were  but the funny thing is that they never predicted the end of the world. just the end of another natural cycle, after which there's a new start, as (in their vision) it had always been and always will be. no danger in sight whatsoever, the exhibit will be a success 

My 2 cents: you should use one of your boomboxes, otherwise you will advertise for something you don-t have.

True! cant and dont want to use a pic already up on the net.

i was thinking of using a pic i already have from the boxes i have,

edited with a program !

This way is going to be genuine, unique and never before posted online

and most important not copyrighted by anyone else!

Interesting idea Deech,

How about boomboxes in the forground with 1980's cars or streetscapes in the backround or boxes left unattended in industrial settings (in front of grafitti or subway platforms) or even better, mixed in with current technology and fashion as a sort of "fish out of water" motif

Just some ideas from an 80's junkie

if i seen a flyer with those b boxes i'd show up lol

Great i will have to take a tosh bombeat and the camera of my sis

and start to photograph it in some places around the city i have in mind !

I like the pics of LL Cool J with those conions but it is around

the net for a looong time !

And i dont own one of those so i cant advertise something that i dont have

for the exhibit wish you come anyway soundboy.

thanks good luck

if the younger poeple knew how cool these radios are they would have to make new ones due to everyone would want them. lets hope someone will discover this out at the exhibit!

Today there is going to be a photoshooting

from a pro photographer friend of mine of

some machines !

The pics will turn to posters 50X70 to compliment the

units that are going to be displayed!

I just wish it wasnt raining for taking some pics

outside.

Hello to the Forum!

Just wanted to share some pics which are not Hi Res pics

with everybody from the progression of the exhibition.

Flyer is done Posters are ok boxes are up,

we need to work on some details end hopefully by Sat

More soon as right now dont really have the time.

Athens Greece

glad it's all coming on nicely Deech, looking good mate..... looking good

great job! can't wait to read the report of the opening day

ROAD TRIP!!! Seriously this would be cool to go to!!!

Looks great, can't wait to see more pics.

Great display, but I'd be crapping my pants wondering if those wires will hold up to supporting those boxes!

Looking forward to some more pics!!

  Well those wires are professional survival rope for climbing

which can hold a person of 120 kgs.

Thank you all for your nice words ,

More pics soon with the final details.

Some more pics and the BLUE poster (4 different posters were made with 4 different boxes pictured!!!) of the exhibition plus the flyer

email name erased for obvious reasons!!

Everybody is invited and welcome ofcourse !

oh i forgot to say that the pics dont show the final result!

By friday it will be 100 per cent ready.

lovely posters! i like the andy(boombox)warhol's marilyn multiple-like graphic design of the second. the one with my beloved 8 speaker sanyo! 

The artwork is quite simple but you get the point!

Sal thank you by the way with your valuable advice

well it was more of a moral support than anything else  but i'm happy for you, the event promises well. by the way congrats for the interior decoration: the wall of suspended boxes matches the title of the exhibit at perfection! i love also the disguised boxes on the shelves. very well done!

Great initiation and well done.

Would you post some close-up picutres of that champagne colored National Panasonic 5230, including that of the controls on top?

Had I been in Greece, I would have done it already!

Here you go AE ! You can always click on the pic to expand

and zoom after with right click.

Today is the opening of the exhibition and i m excited about it .

pics. Far too Many people were involved

with this!

(i can find some cheap but luxury accomondation for members)

''ROAD TRIP!!! Seriously this would be cool to go to!!!''

5 HI RES pics from boxes displayed at the exhibition.

lovely yoko! it looks like a simplified version of the conic you found at the flea market last week, in turn an aka of the sanyo m7900lu i got lost in the labyrinth of aliases

Its exactly the same as the Conic Sal !

It s an aka the only change is the lettering which if

you look closely at the pic is in German.

wow then i want one! actually, both look like the sanyo m7900 but, in fact, they're different. beautiful nevertheless

Some more pics of the exhibit

very nice Deech, now.....do i take the boxes or the bottles of spirits

hehehehe

Well It must be a beverage that you like Lav!

Maybe the JackCrown150 Cocktail !

oh i do like a beverage Deech without a doubt, as tempting as them cocktails look i think il'e take the jack daniels, think il'e have a few then take the boxes

Then you must check this Lav !!
