The 'Boom Book' was a project carried out during 2007 as a commemoration of Portugal's Boom Festival's 10th anniversary. The goal was is to
independently release a book about Boom but also to highlight its main contribution to today's world - as leader in incorporating novel approaches to
entertainment and providing experiences lived through a festival which can pioneer new perceptions and visions, enhancing all of us and our relationship with
the world we live in.
This book is a collaborative project put together by anthropologists, journalists, designers, illustrators, poets, musicologists, and
photographers to capture the essence of the Boom Festival. The Boom Book includes essays, interviews, visionary art by Alex Grey, Robert Venosa or Android,
and innovative texts about psy-trance. It is a cultural record of striking importance, capturing the beauty of Boom and also the role of subcultures in a
modern world.
The Boom Book has 168 pages and a format of 30cm x 30cm.
