AntiCast 147 – “Fim do Mundo”, de André Ducci

Olá, antidesigners e brainstormers!
Neste programa, Ivan Mizanzuk e Marcos Beccari entrevistam André Ducci, ilustrador e autor da HQ “Fim do Mundo”, lançamento da editora Arte & Letra. Conheçam um pouco sobre este talentoso artista, sua trajetória, seu trabalho com Joca Terron em “Guia de Ruas Sem Saída” e fiquem instigados em saber mais sobre que mundo que está acabando! Segue a sinopse da obra:

André Ducci conta que a ideia para fazer sua HQ Fim do Mundo surgiu de seu interesse pela exploração polar do começo do século XX. Sem usar as palavras, apenas com desenhos em preto e branco, Ducci narra a história de um homem que precisa enfrentar todas as adversidades que a natureza coloca em seu caminho. Um homem solitário lutando contra o vento, a neve e o mar por sua sobrevivência e que em sua jornada se depara com o impacto que a Humanidade teve na natureza. E a troca de transformações da natureza no Homem e vice-versa se transforma em um ciclo, uma engrenagem, e cada vez que gira nos torna mais solitários.

PROMOÇÃO: Concorra a uma cópia de “Fim do Mundo”, de André Ducci, e de “Ira dos Dragões”, de Thiago Tizzot! Ouça o programa e saiba como participar!

New Facebook "No, Thanks" pop up cleverly disguised as privacy management

Facebook is about to start intermittently nagging you, but it’s not like they haven’t done this before.

Facebook has always cared about your privacy. Seriously. I’m as critical of them as the next guy, but they know as well as anyone else, one step too far, and Facebook can, and would, go the way of MySpace. These are the things insomnia is made of, well, that and clowns.

Adrian Belew launches a Kickstarter for his app called FLUX

We’ve talked a lot at Adland about how the advancement of technology has unfortunately eroded some of our ethical standards, especially when it comes to music. And yet for every musician rightly shaking their fist at what streaming, webcasting and big tech companies have done to their livelihood, a few are attempting to circumvent the issues.

Twitter Taps Debt Market to Raise Up to $1.5B


Twitter Inc. is tapping debt markets for the first time, with plans to raise as much as $1.5 billion to invest in acquisitions and expansion.

The San Francisco-based microblogging company is selling the convertible bonds in two $650 million pieces, one maturing in five years and one coming due in seven years, according to a regulatory filing today. The size of the offering may increase to $1.5 billion if the banks involved decide to participate.

Twitter, which isn’t projected to be profitable this year, has been investing to build up its advertising business and add engineers who can help tweak its product to appeal to a broader audience. Executives see an opportunity in the debt market to raise more cash cheaply with little immediate dilution of their shareholders’ ownership, according to a person familiar with the matter. The company was inspired by technology leaders, including Google Inc. and Netflix Inc., successfully offering debt while borrowing remains inexpensive, the person said.
