It's been a while since Benetton ads have won awards. They either weren't running many or they weren't as good or controversial as in the past. But Fabrica with the help of 72andSunny changed that, which is why their campaign took the Grand Prix in Press. Although, personally, I'd prefer a campaign to have won that wasn't just a series of slight variations of the same visual idea with the same exact copy. Sadly, many of the Gold Lion winners were the same sort of thing. Oh well. Maybe next year will be different. We can only hope.

.... ah. The moon. No wait, is that a penny? *squints and reads tagline* "Reach unexplored places - Swiffer telescopic duster". Aaaaah. Guys, if you ran this in National Geographic and magazines like "Science illustrated" I am so high-fiving you.

If the Michelin tyre man had children, they'd probably look like this. I have no idea what it's supposed to mean though... That holding on to the road is child's play? oooooooooh, that's it.

So check this out. Some people don't just hear music, but they see colors and geometric shapes as a visual aid. They call this neurological condition Synesthesia.

Two well known artists who suffered from it were Wassily Kandisnky and a Finnish composer named Jean Sibelius.

Agency 358 Helsinki was tasked with coming up with a visual identity for the Sibelius Academy. Since no one round the office had this condition (or LSD) they went with the next best option: Creating software that analyzed music according to pitch, timber, tempo etc, and transformed it into colors. It's kinda like they asked Sibelius himself to design the identity.
