Frankey Shares Playlist for designboom listens Series

Frankey, an artist and designer based in Amsterdam, is the inaugural feature of designboom listens, a series that delves into the intersection of music and creative practice. With a background in industrial design from Delft University of Technology, he engages in art, design, and engineering, crafting sculptures, installations, and unique objects. His work reimagines everyday structures, like transforming a bridge support into a rhinoceros or a villa with pink bubblegum spilling from its windows. For this series, he curated a playlist that fuels his creativity, including Aretha Franklin's 'Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive' and James Brown's 'People Get Up and Drive Your Funky Soul'. His favorite album cover, Extince's 'Kermis', is also his own design. The complete playlist can be found on Spotify, and his portrait was captured by Arie de Leeuw.
