Design is the method of putting form and content together. Design, just as art, has multiple definitions; there is no single definition. Design can be art. Design can be aesthetics. Design is so simple, that’s why it is so complicated., – Paul Rand

I should watch (and listen to this) more often.

tell the time with water…

by aileen on May 15, 2012

This is a water clock that somehow works on a dot matrix system to produced incredible graphics (and show the time) – It’s in the train station in Osaka, Japan – oh the possibilities it brings to mind, hmmmmmm (via adomedia)

the most beautiful flashmob ever…

by aileen on May 10, 2012

This flashmob made my cry (in a smiley kind of way). So beautiful. In April 2012 Copenhagen Phil (Sjællands Symfoniorkester) surprised the passengers in the Copenhagen Metro by playing Griegs Peer Gynt. The flash mob was created in collaboration with Radio Klassisk. All music was performed and recorded in the metro. (via likecool )

Little boxes…

by aileen on May 9, 2012

Walk of the Earth have made quite a stir with their ‘guitar’ video (somebody that I used to know) but this one had me at ‘little’. It’s a song I remember from my childhood but done beautifully, I love cardboard. (thanks Tony for sharing this with me). And while we are talking about cardboard have a look at the office below (via notcot) more pictures here

Clever (and naked)…

by aileen on April 17, 2012

I should warn you before you click play that there is a large, wobbly naked man in this video… but it is undeniable clever advertising (and not what you will expect)…

The Passion Series…

by aileen on April 9, 2012

The Passion Series is an inspiring collection of short documentaries about people and their unique passions. Each film immerses you into the world of a soul that has been set on fire. Through this exploration, you’ll discover why these people do what they do and what drives their spirit. Created by two friends of mine, Brian C Miller Richard & Natalie Kingston who have a  shared passion for telling stories through beautiful moving images. To quote them:

“We believe that passion itself is a huge ball of energy that is spread like wildfire. By using the fuel from our own passion we want to showcase others’ passions so you, in turn, may be inspired to go out and do what you love.”

The latest film is all about one of my best friends, Silvia Bertolazzi, a women who followed her passion to open Carpe Diem! Gelato – Espresso Bar – Of course I’m completely biased but you should watch this and be prepared to be inspired:

You can find the rest of the Passion Series here, bookmark the page – you are going to want to return!

How to use the web… (to promote a movie)

by aileen on March 21, 2012

I’m not a big action adventure movie buff but I love clever (yes, I know you know that by now). The promoters of Spiderman (coming out in July) have started a viral campaign that contains news reports (featuring Dennis Leary). They are also for people to send in sightings to webbedmenace.com. I can’t wait to see what people send. I still may not see the movie, but I will love the build up to it. What a good use of web (!) advertising.

Even Hamsters like Creating Clever…

by aileen on March 6, 2012

Every now and then I drift over to Fiverr.com just to see what people are offering to do for $5 – and I just couldn’t resist this Hamster video. May just be the best $5 I’ve ever spent – Watch the video below:

Watch this… clever stuff…

by aileen on January 10, 2012

Looks like I’m on an advertising roll today – I’m not telling who made this (you’ll see) but you have to admit it’s clever…

Clever, creative and with that awwww factor….

by aileen on November 11, 2011

It’s way to early to be thinking about Christmas but I just saw this and HAD to share before I get all jaded. It’s from John Lewis, a department store in the UK. Clever, creative and with that awww factor to get you in the mood for Christmas shopping. (and it’s a song originally by The Smiths, you can’t go wrong with that) – and just to really get in the Christmas spirit imagine the spoofs that will come soon!
