I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
Surely it's some awesome creative types, right?
Maybe? Here's what we do know, one (probably fake) co-founder is Burkhard Hormann, (facebook) a graduate in law from the Hamburg university. They've secured the trademark.
Veronica Jin is the creative co-ordinator. She exists! She enjoys blogging about ads, hanging out at the One Show and meeting likeminded at meetups like findspark & 360i startup outlook.
Curtis Oliver Caja who studied at Miami Ad School and lives in Ft Lauderdale/Miami made this wooden mailer with a cigar and a lighter for Colossal Spark as he's the art director intern. He really likes a good cigar and majored in creative advertising at Roosevelt University, Chicago, IL before Miami ad school.
Speaking of Chicago, Polina Quick in Chicago handles operations and finance. That's also where Daniela Mueller-Soppart consults & manages NPOs.
There's a Colossal Spark facebook page of course. Colossal Spark would also like some angel funding and have a page here for that
Ray Mond is a made up person, who has created slideshares and a Quora profile touting crowdsourcing.
Agencykillers (facebook) are involved in some way. Cute name. So they're gonna kill agencies by offering creatives less pay than agencies offer....? uhm... yeah... okay? Anyway, that's a "directory of crowdsourced-based service providers".
Oh, and there's this. In case you don't already hate everything about this. Is that "Burk Hard" smoking a cigar and touting a very british accent? This all feels very similar to Giant Hydra which was founded by cigar-loving Ignacio Oreamuno of Ihaveanidea a few years back, except Ignacio never hid the fact that he was the founder of his creative elite crowdsourcing engine.
The short clips of the artists, dancers, subculture celebs are FAR more interesting than the main edit of the ad. The interactive "upload your selfies & show us what your made of" is the usual blaha, and so far I see only one actual person has uploaded their selfie. The Hashtag #MadeofBlack however, is crowded by people declaring their pride, shouting out to their favorit artists and just randomly tweeting. At least 50% of the tag is coming from people who are on the continent of Africa too, it trended in Ghana for two days straight.
You don't seem to be speaking about the same thing as Kidsleepy at all. At all. Would you like to try to stay on topic?
Or are you? Where did you get the number $1800 from? Is this a sum that one pays CS for "two pages"? We've never mentioned that sum here, and you seem to be confident that this is a number known. So are you part of CS and is this about "pages" rather than generating groundbreaking ideas as the CS homepage talks about?
We can't expect them to walk too far away from the Shoreditch house, now can we? Also, I'm really tired of the sofa as well. It's the advertising-safe delinquency. Instead of shooting up in alleyways, chain smoking while loitering, plastering street art over old graffiti and getting into turf-wars or kicking old ladies in the back of the head while filming on cell-phones, these "safe" kids are street "fun" with the help of ratty sofa.
Someone at Adidas must have done this when they were teenagers, because we sure as hell don't do it now. Only homeless people touch the sofas on the street for they are filled with lice.
They YO-YO diet. Stopped hitting the gym after fitting into slim suits for that red carpet appearance, I guess.
Just FYI: this is what the Random Act website looked like the day this article was posted: The Random Act Aug 4 at seven pm. There's no mention at all of GISHWHES. Having a charity clearly visible doesn't excuse harassing writers anyway.
