Murmurs of Earth

Book Cover Redesign / 2023

The Ask:

Redesign a book cover in the International Typographic Style.

I chose Carl Sagan's Murmurs of Earth, book on the Voyager Golden Record. I had recently gotten my hands on a physical copy and was giving it my second re-read at the time.

The Answer:

A minimalist book cover allowing for multiple interpretations of the same graphic. The central waveform represents the path the Voyager probes took through space, the sound waves of the golden records upon them, and the winding path to the records' creation described in the book.

The covers were physically printed and assembled.
