I LOVE it. Getting to the story in technology.

Pretty much the best music video experience so far. Excellent, excellent use of 3-D graphic projection mapping on the exterior of Rochester Castle. Seeper, Nokia, Sony Music, and Jack joined together to promote Sony’s release of Iron Man 2’s soundtrack – a collection of not-celebrated-enough ACDC songs.

I wish I could have been there to see this.

Same song, but updated 2010 info from Eric Qualman on the state of Social Media and how it intersects with people and brands. Get on board.

Note to Eric – please stop using this song. How can you underscore a Brave New World when you’re using what was probably the most overused song in traditional advertising?

I’m sure there’s quite a few people rooting for this. (Oh and I’m speaking of the end of advertising in general – not just the end of traditional advertising.)

Watch for the bong sitting on the desk behind the guy as he’s making his final, dire statement.

Oh boo.  You thought this was going to be something entirely different than it is.

StruckAxiom came up with an interesting way to pull in Facebook and webpages into a framework that allows you to mess with them. This interesting piece of newness (to me at least) was created to help promote the film “How To Train Your Dragon.”

Pretty cool take over of a page. Not so cool “borrowing” from Sony Bravia’s paint explosions. Though I haven’t seen the TV – so I don’t know the full story of the work. Click on the link below:

Like it.

How can they POSSIBLY have made such a crap, 80s-style, corporate/industrial film for this totally fucking amazing technology? It’s so bad – I don’t think this Claytronics technology is for real.

Seriously. Who did this? They should have their nose rubbed in it like a bad dog.

My wonderfully angsty and body-bodacious friend Jeff Greenspan ignored all of our advice and left R/GA for BBDO.

And he did it his way….

Jeff’s goodbye to r/ga

I thought I was tired of the Hitler meme…but I loved it, Jeff.

Best of luck for continued success and I hope BBDO appreciates your pecs as much as Hitler and I do.

Waaaait….so the Eskimo lady is yelling at the Eskimo guy….and the walrus says: Hey guys! Clean my blood off your knife with Sunbrite cleanser!

And check it out…you can see my severed spinal cord in the cross section of my neck!

*For those of you under 40 or not in advertising -  Mad Dogs & Englishmen was an ad agency.  The one person I know I don’t have to explain this to is Jeff Greenspan.
