RMX

With an impressive line-up of participants (E-boy, Future Farmers,The Designers Republic, Volumeone and many more), RMX, a project by the prestigious design group Rinzen, aims to draw out the secret child in all of us. In this visual approximation of Chinese Whispers the predecessor 's image serves as blueprint and inspiration for the following design elements may be picked out,discarded, erased or re-used. The resulting 6 virtual chain letters are a remarkable varied but strangely cohesive collection of images which emphasise the great creative potential of unusual collaborations as well as the thriving network character of the design community. A 3 inch CD of the artists 'initial Illustrator files and voice samples accompanies this beautiful "picture book ". According to the book 's prime intention these, too, may be remixed by the user.

Marilla Alexander is head of the Australian designers group Rinzen.
