The Spectrum surfer cover has some things in common with Issue Eight's, the man diving into a pool: the cool blues of water, the surreal use of a computer as a surfboard. It heralded the arrival of the Spectrum + at the height of summer. The primary task of a magazine cover is to stand out from the plethora of other titles on the newsagant's shelves. When it came to using colour, strangely juxtaposed images and dynamic composition, Oliver Frey's CRASH cover pictures were, and still are, among the best. They always make an immediate impact. |
