FRENCH AIDS AD

Friday, December 28th, 2007

Essential full-on “aids-is-killing-people” reminder, delivered with all the sex, style and drama we’d expect from our buddies, 30 miles ferry ride from Dover. Was going to make a ‘viral’ gag but that would hardly be very good taste would it, even on the internet.

LIPO POWERED

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

On Sunday I was having one of my frequent, odd daydreams, this time pondering how far you might get in a diesel car powered with the fat lipo-sucked out of my ass. I figured a few miles and then slated it for a later day art project filed in the “probably never get round to [...]

ASTON MARTIN DESIGN STUDIO

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

As a coolbrands council member I get the odd invitation to something a bit glam. Last week it was Aston Martin, inviting me up to see their new design studio in a field somewhere up the M40

KEVIN ROBERTS

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

Kevin Roberts is CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi Worldwide (now billed as an “Ideas Company”, versus the outmoded “ad agency”).

We made this Facebook application for Tophop. Subscribers get to see new stuff as it rolls into TS and can share it with friends over the network. Snap it Pp is a little game we put in there to promote the service for Christmas.

ADS ON FACEBOOK

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

Just been tinkering around with Facebook’s advertising service and was pretty amazed how you can segment by age, location., political views etc. Pretty amazing / scary. We know this stuff happens all the time behind the scenes but it’s funny seeing it first hand and asking the question “Is a conservative more likely to buy [...]
