This is kind of a local event in Santiago, Chile. So if you’re not in the area maybe you won’t be interested in this post… Anyways…
Cartel Se Busca (Poster wanted) is a project where 100 different artists are asked to interveine a foldable poster commonly found outside small stores around the city, also known as palomas (pidgeons) here in Chile.
Now the organization of the project is throwing a party to raise funds being held tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow. Sorry for the short notice but I’ve had a few problems posting the news.
The event’s info is on the flyer, but just in case, the address is Santos Dumontt 480. It’ll cost $1000 chilean pesos ’till 1 AM, after which it’ll cost $2000.
Those who can, try to go support this excellent and creative iniciative.

We used to be fans of Michel Gondry, the father of lush Levi’s commercials and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. But then he came out with The Science of Sleep and shattered our childlike faith in his ability…
Apple undeniably has great TV advertising with TBWA’s “Get a Mac†spots, starring AdFreak favorite John Hodgman. As we mentioned previously, it’s also been extending its creative excellence to that most humble of vehicles, the Web banner. Today’s NYTimes.com continues Apple’s latest innovation of syncing up Web-display ads to work together to tell a story. The first iteration of this approach was so successful that it has drawn over 600,000 views on YouTube. The only problem was, it crashed some browsers, leading tech blog Engadget to pull the ad. They seem to have worked out the kinks for the new execution.

I’ve never been much of a fan of the oriental culture; but still I can’t deny its enormous value in overall international culture.
Now I leave you a place to see what’s going on in the world of design over at the lands of the rising Sun.

The media is reporting Barack Obama shouted out a stirring "Si se puede" in Spanish. The problem is that without the accent on the i, the phrase means, "If we can," not "Yes, we can."
Real estate mogul, Samuel Zell, is intent on changing the culture at The Tribune Company, his latest acquisition and first media company.
Zell tapped Randy Michaels, Tribune CEO for interactive and broadcasting, to rewrite the company’s employee manual–that lovely document workers snuggle up with at night.
According to Los Angeles Times (a Tribune paper), the document–which shrunk from 11,519 words to 3,663 words–is nothing like the mind-numbing, lawyered gobbledygook in most corporate manuals. Consider the opening:
“Rule #1: Use your best judgment.”
“Rule #2: See Rule 1.”
It appears that Zell is using his best judgment. Should his employees do the same, Tribland will be, no doubt, be a happy place.
Haunted by an unrequited love with a fellow ferret fanatic? Doomed to the doghouse by an unfortunately timed transvestite photo? Well, you can try turning to Yahoo! Mail, but even that might not save you from the damage that’s already been done, according to two quirky new TV ads by Sydney agency Three Drunk Monkeys. The dry wit and subtle storytelling of the “Losing Lincoln†and “Lady Boy†spots do a good job of keeping the ads in left field without drifting completely into Aaron Ruell country.

According to the The Wall Street Journal, Scrabble’s owners, Hasbro and Mattel, are working to shut down Scrabulous, one of the most popular applications on Facebook.
While there are authorized Scrabble games online, Scrabulous has gained popularity because it’s free, easy to play with friends and easy to access on Facebook. Scrabulous listed more than 600,000 daily active users on Facebook as of Wednesday and is one of the 10 most used applications on the site. People can also play at Scrabulous.com.
The game was developed by brothers Rajat and Jayant Agarwalla from India. They created it after they couldn’t find an online version of Scrabble that they liked.
Instead of going to court, a better idea would be to introduce an official version of Scrabble on Facebook–one that is clearly better than the knockoff.
The first Star Wars movie did remarkably well at the Oscars, winning six awards — for sound, original score, film editing, visual effects, set decoration and costume design. It also scored nominations for best supporting actor (Alec Guinness), best director (George Lucas), best original screenplay (also Lucas) and best picture. After that, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences cooled significantly to Mr. Lucas and his droids. The Empire Strikes Back won one Oscar (best sound), but the other four films won nothing — and scored precious few nominations. Still, the franchise does get some belated love with this year’s official Academy Awards poster, shown here. It was designed by Drew Struzan, the veteran poster illustrator who made the one-sheets for all six of the Star Wars films. (Struzan’s son Christian executed this design.) Read more about Drew Struzan’s work here. The 80th Academy Awards ceremony is tentative scheduled for Feb. 24, assuming the writers’ strike doesn’t sink it like the Titanic (best picture, 1998).
