Floating and Symmetrical Chairs Illusion

L’artiste coréen Kyung Woo Han a créé l’installation « Green House » en se basant sur une illusion d’optique assez troublante faite de chaises distordues, suspendues et symétriques, qui se reflètent dans ce qu’on pourrait prendre pour de l’eau. Une installation insolite à découvrir dans la suite.

Campanha contra o câncer de mama incentiva mulheres a tocarem-se

No início da década de 1990, a banda australiana Divinyls entrou de vez no mapa  – e causou muita polêmica – por conta de “I Touch Myself”, uma música que falava claramente sobre masturbação. Em 2013, a vocalista Chrissy Amphlett morreu, vítima do câncer de mama, e um ano depois, o Cancer Council, seus amigos e familiares resolveram homenagear a cantora com o “I Touch Myself Project”, uma campanha dedicada a conscientizar as mulheres sobre a doença incentivando-as a tocarem-se.

Com criação da JWT de Sydney e produção da SOAP Creative, o vídeo principal é de arrepiar. Em preto e branco, ele reúne importantes artistas australianas, como Olivia Newton John, Megan Washington, Sarah McLeod, Katie Noonan, Sarah Blasko, Suze DeMarchi, Deborah Conway, Kate Ceberano, Little Pattie e Connie Mitchell em uma interpretação singela de “I Touch Myself”, que adquire um sentido completamente novo e diferente dentro deste contexto.

O vídeo será comercializado no iTunes e Google Play e toda a renda será revertida ao Cancer Council.

Exclusive Interview: Susan Wojcicki’s Plan to Make YouTube ‘Stars’ Real-Life Famous


The ads, developed by YouTube’s agency Co:Collective, will roll out for those three and many others over the course of the year. “We are making bets on proven talent,” said Mr. Kyncl. “Bethany, Michelle and Rosanna are all proven talents with huge amounts of followers, subscribers and a lot of watch time and regular release schedules.”

At the same time as this marketing push, YouTube is dramatically shifting the way it sells content. In the past, YouTube treated all content and advertisers pretty much the same, but now it’s packaging its top 5% of content as determined algorithmically (of course) in 14 categories and offering that up front on a guaranteed basis to advertisers. Called “Google Preferred,” the offering is built for TV advertisers who want to reserve in advance and know what they’re getting, separate from direct-response advertisers that buy YouTube impressions by the ton (and dominate search).

“We are just so early on — that is a really important point — we are at the point where we are trying to get advertisers who have traditionally bought TV to understand the YouTube platform,” Ms. Wojcicki said.

‘Mad Men’ Premiere Recap: Out in the Cold


When we met Don Draper last season, he was lounging in paradise reading Dante’s Inferno: tough beach-reading but appropriate research for our adman antihero’s approaching torment. Throughout the sixth season, we watched Draper writhe in whatever circle of hell is reserved for those who mismanage their affairs so badly that their teenage daughter is able to witness them boffing the neighbor lady.

We know that the show’s seventh and final season will be about rising up out of the depths. The question before us: Just how painful can purgatory be, especially when there’s no booze to numb it?

We’ve jumped forward a couple months in time, to late January 1969, just in time for Nixon’s inauguration. Don is once again in an in-between state — cast out of Sterling Cooper & Partners but not fired, somewhat skeeved by his wife but not divorced.

Survey: Advertisers Rank Below Government at Protecting Personal Data


Consumers trust marketers and advertisers with their data about as far as they can throw ’em. More than half of those participating in a recent privacy study said doctors, search engines and banks warrant their trust when it comes to personal data protection. Marketers and advertisers, on the other hand, elicted the least faith from those surveyed; just 25% said the industry is trustworthy with personal information.

A data privacy study conducted by research firm GfK in March suggests that, while nearly half of consumers surveyed say they appreciate getting targeted marketing messages, they’re skeptical of how corporations use their personal data and doubt that stringent security measures are in place. Forty-nine percent of those surveyed agreed “advertising that is tailored to my needs is helpful because I can find the right products and services more quickly.”

But there’s a bit of a disconnect: 64% said they don’t trust how their personal data “is handled” by marketers and advertisers.
