Nike Jordan: Quick Control Chaos

Admin — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 05:06:21 +0000

Be ready for the next stage of interactive video. The Nike Jordan brand launches Chris Paul’s newest shoe, the CP3.V with this live action street court. Chris’s pace and game skills turn the situation into chaos and you can circle the action in a near 180-degree arc. Check out the site, it’s quite awesome.

Oh sh**t

Oh Expletive is a project of epic epicness. It is a series of illustrations about ass kicking and mayhem — from zombies to unicorns to knife fights to flame throwers — the series consists of some of the most awesome things life has to offer. Made me laugh

Google maps cube

It seems like Google has been pumping out a tonne of new ads recently… and this one, launched just a few days ago at CES 2012, again honours their famous analogue story telling style. The ad takes the form of the classic labyrinth game that you might have on your iPhone, but is re-imagined as a massive, physical, handcrafted version of Google Maps. Love it!

Some of you have probably seen this piece of work over the last week, it’s a campaign by the Israeli Anti-Drug Authority which has created the world’s first Facebook Timeline campaign. One of the better use of social media plaform. Love it.

Arcade fire again

Canadian band ‘Arcade Fire’ have relaunched their hit ‘Sprawl II’ in an interactive dance-in-front-of-your-webcam version. Send your little sister or colleagues out of the room and steer the zombie-like creatures with your hands and body.

You can start busting a web move on their website Sprawl 2. Below is the regular music video in case you want to memorise some routines first. Impressive!

What’s more real than today’s realistic looking war games? Real war of course. Turtle Beach, maker of gaming audio gear like headsets, teamed up with agency Droga5 New Zealand to explore this premise. They sent an experienced Kiwi gamer (not a soldier) to a real war zone: Iraq.

Walk of shame

What looks devastatingly sexy at night often winds up looking devastatingly inappropriate when you’re walking home at daybreak after Xmas parties. Harvey Nichols highlights the dreaded Walk of Shame.

Hero

3.2 million ink dots. Fascinating “making of” an illustrated portrait by Miguel Endara. I love the idea of a video storytelling piece to celebrate the oldest form of art. No special effects, no computer graphics, only plain, simple and poetic ink. Inspiring.
