Every month, the Forward Magazine brings you a selection of musical pearls hand-picked by friends, musicians, speakers of the Forward Festival and many more. The 9th edition is curated by 3D designer, illustrator and design festival Us by Night founder Rizon Parein.
The German designer Tim Lindacher created Posters, Visuals and Merchandise all fitting to the tour's name: Airline.
For this project, Tim drew his inspiration from rather unusual places like suitcases or air like balloons, but also famous logos of national and international airlines.
If you didn't order your t-shirt or stickers already – too bad: everything is sold out.
When Tim isn't redesigning airline logos, he also designs posters. One of his creations is currently exhibited at MAK Vienna at the show

To manifest the song’s legacy the human being and speaker of this year’s Forward Festival Max Siedentopf created a unique monument in the namibian desert. A sound installation that consists of a solar powered MP3 player and Speakers on white pillars. The only song on the playlist is of course iconic 'Africa' by Toto.
The namibians have mixed feelings about their newest landmark called “Toto Forever”. Some love it, others say it’s the worst sound installation of all time. The artist sees both reactions as a huge compliment. His goal was to create the ultimate homage and a physical exhibit of “Africa” in Africa. Max chose the location because of his own personal roots (German-Namibian) and also because it is the oldest desert on earth with 55 milion years.

No need to hurry boy, it’s waiting there for you – Max promised the song will now be playing for all eternity and it might as well be the first thing the extraterrestrials will hear on earth.
