"aus(r)asten"

"Hard Format likes to celebrate designs large and small and aus(r)asten tends very much towards the latter. It´s a 3" Cd with a small booklet. The motiv on the cover could never claim to be "emblazoned", that would be an exaggeration, it´s a small stick figure dissolving into dust. On the reverse, the figure´s arms are gone. Inside, a slender tree trunk without arms (branches) thrusts upwards while it´s roots hang skeletal-like in mid-air. Everything is black against white. Google traslates "ausrasten" as "go ballistic", which playes against all the other signs nicely." (featured @ http://hardformat.org - former platform by London based Colin Buttimer, which celebrated music-related design.)
