The POWA ‘Neighborhood Experiment’
Tweet
The POWA ‘Neighborhood Experiment’ PSA in South Africa is a powerful and disturbing one. The ad begins with a man playing drums in his home late at night. Of course, he gets several complaints from neighbors claiming that the noise is too loud.
The following night the same man turns on his laptop and plays a prerecorded track of a couple having an argument, and of a woman later getting beaten. The shocking part is that nobody comes to the door to inquire on what’s going on. The POWA ‘Neighborhood Experiment’ ad is a powerful commercial about the realities of domestic abuse.

Must See: BMW - Flash Projection
Tweet
The first cinema commercial that doesn’t use a directly visible logo. During an exciting Superbike commercial we illuminated the BMW logo with a harmless photo flash onto the audience`s eyes. When the audience was asked to close their eyes at the end of the ad, they were surprised to see the BMW logo as an afterimage. BMW literally got inside people’s heads – involving them instead of boring them.

I Hope This Gets To You

"After my girlfriend moved away for graduate school, I wanted to create something different to express my feelings for her. I secretly created a song and video with my friends the Daylights in hopes that it would be passed around and get to her organically. WITH YOUR HELP, we can meet this goal and it can stand as a symbol of what we can do as an digital social community. This is dedicated to anyone who is separated from people they love."

Anti-Drunk Applications
Tweet
Just like “drunk-texting,” there is also a symptom called “drunk-posting.” For those of you who are guilty of this, there is now the Social Media Sobriety Test that will deter you from doing such embarrassing things.
Drunk-posting is the result of getting hammered and engaging in social media sites late at night, only to regret your slurred posts the next morning. The Social Media Sobriety Test app lets you input what times you are most vulnerable and blocks you from accessing Facebook or Twitter during those hours. Further, the app makes you pass a mental-agility test, like dragging a cursor in a straight line, in order to access those sites when intoxicated. The Social Media Sobriety Test is a genius idea for all those digital drunkards out there.

Plastic comes alive! One Hundred and Eight – Interactive Installation
Tweet
One Hundred and Eight is an interactive wall-mounted Installation mainly made out of ordinary garbage bags. Controlled by a microcontroller each of them is selectively inflated and deflated in turn by two cooling fans.
Although each plastic bag is mounted stationary the sequences of inflation and deflation create the impression of lively and moving creatures which waft slowly around like a shoal. But as soon a viewer comes close it instantly reacts by drawing back and tentatively following the movements of the observer. As long as he remains in a certain area in front of the installation it dynamically reacts to the viewers motion. As soon it does no longer detect someone close it reorganizes itself after a while and gently restarts wobbling around.

Letterbombing - The First Attacks

Keep Fear Alive! The inside story of a group of rogue ad execs who hijacked Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck’s Facebook pages—and how you can, too.
The vertical message that ran down the left side on Glenn Beck's Facebook page the night of October 14 read clear as that evening's sky:
"K-E-E-P F-E-A-R A-L-I-V-E." Minutes after the first message appeared, the same letters, in the same order, began turning up on the fan pages of FOX News', Sarah Palin, and hilariously, Justin Bieber. Each letter was displayed in the space where a profile picture would normally be, next to a posted comment. As each Facebook user posted their comments in the right order, the message came to life.

Eye Candy: The Most Realistic CG I've Seen
Tweet
This is a 1:00 commercial for kitchen sinks or something made by Alex Roman entirely with computer graphics. I know you want to believe it's real, but it's not.
Per Alex: Asking your questions; yep, it's all CG -same process as T&S- I tried to put some live-footage shots but i run out of time so CGI did the trick. Whole production was 2 and a half months for the initial concept to the final editing; two people: Juan & me.
So yeah, this is the first time you'll watch CGI and argue it's all real. Have fun with that. I also embedded a impressive 13:00 short by Alex that's also entirely CGI (and impressive as hell).
Please hit fullscreen.

Homemade spacecraft – Space flight iPhone camera footage
Tweet
Video from a camera attached to a weather balloon that rose into the upper stratosphere and recorded the blackness of space. Seven-year-old Max Geissbuhler and his dad Luke Geissbuhler dreamed of visiting space. Armed with just a weather balloon, a video camera, and an iPhone, they basically did just that. The father-and-son team from Brooklyn managed to send their homemade spacecraft up nearly 19 miles, high into the stratosphere, bringing back perhaps the most impressive amateur space footage ever. The duo housed the video camera, iPhone, and GPS equipment in a specially designed insulated casing, along with some hand-warmers and a note from Max requesting its safe return from whomever may find it after making it back to solid ground. All told, father and son spent eight months preparing for their homemade journey into space, in hopes of filming "the blackness beyond our earth."

Georges Rousse – Optical illusions are awesome!
Tweet
Georges Rousse (born 1947 in Paris) is a French photographer. Rousse's work, from the 1990s to today, generally appears at first glance to be photos of desolate or abandoned spaces (buildings, rooms, parking garages or streetscapes) often on their way to the wrecking ball, on which the artist has superimposed precise geometrical shapes or squiggly graffiti. So no, this is NOT photoshop, it's pure awesomeness. (Click for higher resolution)
