This digipak is very interesting, and very intriguing. Foremost, the blue background stands out, and the white bold text complements it nicely. I feel the colours blend together nicely to create a fantastic visually appealing CD album. The title of the album, and name of the band are both easily distinguishable; the song titles on the back clearly numbered and displayed. We will take influence from this and make sure our text will also be bold and stand out making it easily readable, as we don't want confusion to set in to our audience.
Now despite the text/font taking a simplistic approach, the imagery is anything but. Firstly we liked the hand-drawn style of the heads and image on the back cover. It is unique and different; which is one our main priorities since we started our project. However what makes this digipak stand out among the rest, is the relationship in the imagery and title of the album. A "Fix" is to temporarily satisfy one's addiction. The imagery relates to this with drawings of the brain, and a neuron cell on the back, implying this is where the "addiction" comes from. This can be connected through what we see on the actual cd; very bizarre images and a "trippy" feel to it. This could mean the fix is one of an
hallucinogenic drug, such as DMT or LSD. On the other hand, " a different kind" that precedes "fix" could imply something other then narcotics, psychedelics or alcohol. it could be referencing to music as the fix, with the brain imagery simply implicating the place that allows us to enjoy the music. I really enjoy the idea of deciphering what we see on the digipak, which has inspired our group to try and go with a similar approach when making our own.
