Dr Lakra at Kurimanzutto in Mexico City

110k

Ever since i found about his tattoos on the pin-ups and luchadores appearing in vintage Mexican magazines, i was in love Dr Lakra. The tattoo artist lives in Mexico. A couple of weeks ago i was in Mexico too and there was a solo show of Dr Lakra at the kurimanzutto gallery. I felt like the happiest person in the world. Now, in retrospect, i feel that i’d been happier had i not forgotten in a taxi my lovely camera with all the images i had taken at the exhibition continue

SOS-Kinderdörfer weltweit: Interactive moving walkway

SOS_Children_Walkway_2

Using a new kind of production technique we created a moving walkway for SOS. The walkway`s sides and handrail were printed on with photos of children, looking at the passengers and stretching out their hands towards them. An interactive effect was created every time a passenger placed his hand on the handrail by way of which the passenger was, so to speak, “taking a child by the hand”. Exactly as they would do if they sponsored them.

Like Balloon, Cable News Nets Also Adrift



MINNEAPOLIS (AdAge.com) — Many media critics are howling over the cable news networks' continual coverage of the "Balloon Boy" drama, as the networks — and their viewers — got caught up in the live coverage. But the real broadcast journalism problem isn't that the cable news networks broke away to go live, but rather what they broke away from.

Ubisoft cria experiência no Twitter para promover “Assassin’s Creed II”

Assassins Creed 2 Twitter Experience

Coincidência que hoje mesmo eu tenha twittado o incrível vídeo das lutas de “Assassin’s Creed II”, revelado pelos desenvolvedores do game, e logo depois a RED Interactive Agency tenha anunciado essa ação, através do Twitter inclusive, para promover a produção milionária da Ubisoft.

Para quem não conhece essa obra de arte feita de pixels, “Assassin’s Creed” é um jogo para PC/Xbox 360/PS3 que te coloca no papel de um exímio assassino na época dos Templários. A sequência do game, que será lançada no dia 23 de novembro, terá sua trama centrada na Itália do século XV.

A “Assassination Experience”, apesar de poder ser experimentada diretamente no site do produto, representa um dos usos mais criativos e complexos do Twitter em uma ação publicitária até o momento. Para entender por completo é preciso testar na prática, mas vou tentar explicar.

Assassins Creed 2 Twitter Experience

Trata-se de uma batalha social em tempo real, em que os jogadores utilizam seus perfis no Twitter para enviar comandos específicos de ataque, defesa e fuga. Após conectar seu Twitter com a plataforma, um outro usuário é indicado como seu alvo. Assim que você twitta um ataque, a vitíma terá um limite de tempo para responder, podendo digitar as ações diretamente ou usar a interface de ícones no site.

As missões são enviadas aleatoriamente durante o dia, portanto, é preciso ficar de olho na aba de replies do seu perfil no Twitter. Conforme participa e responde as ações de outros jogadores, você ganha novas armas e habilidades. Os pontos e rankings ficam registrados também no site assassinscreed.com/twitter

Assassins Creed 2 Twitter Experience

A inovação está mesmo no uso do Twitter, já que a brincadeira é basicamente um Adventure/RPG textual, assim como muitos jogos da década de 1970. O site ainda disponibiliza um data visualization das batalhas.

Para os não gamers e/ou para os nãos conhecedores de “Assassin’s Creed”, a ação pode soar complicada, mas é pertinente para o público que interessa e ainda usa O Twitter, a ferramenta online de mídia social mais hypada da década, de forma que nenhuma marca conseguiu fazer até hoje. Sem invasão, sem spam, só por opção do usuário.
