I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
Aaah, thanks for the 'support''. ;) Yaknow for a moment there I thought I might have a defect funnybone. I looked at it, understood how many hits it had had the first day. Realized that someone approved it and though somethig was wrong with me... I mean, they say nothing and they do nothing. wtf?
They're not the only ones who cover shit they don't own in London (or most world-cities for that matter), after all that's where Flyposters are paid for by taxpayers since the advertisers don't pay for the "media space" (which it isn't) and don't pay for it's removal. Some might argue that the spread of ads on 'pirated' space might have caused the street art boom as most artists paint over the illegal ads as canvas.
/serious ;)
It is pretty ironic though, and perhaps best summed up like Jordan said when Nissan did their Urban fakeout I LOVE this, by the way. I love how how "legitimate underground artists" are pissed off that their idea of subversion is being subverted. And
it's probably the work of a street artist hired by a creative wonk like me at an agency to do the subverting.
"But, but, I wanna be angry! I wanna fight the power! I'm not just some whiney tagger bitching because, um, I get to decide what's cool and if you do something sort of cool-esque it erodes my cool and my identity as EDGY and SUBVERSIVE..."
Waaaaah!!!"
hahaha, BUSTED. Book 'em Caff-o.
I always loved that film though. Loved it when it was on the Epica shortlist. Loved it when it toured the world on those "worlds X commercials" shows. It's ace. It's memorable. The team who produced it seven years ago should be a little insulted at the veggie-soceity trying to pretend it's all new. Wonder if they stil work at Ogilvyone? This ad might have lasted longer than their career. ;)
Hey this is funny, Jim Hanas of adcritics elert (Getcreativity) diagnoses the adworld with the new stress-illness; Ebay-stunt-fatigue. ;)
We weren't sure how serious Mad Injection CD Mikal Reich was when he emailed us early this week, announcing that the agency within an agency was on sale on eBay. Call it eBay stunt fatigue. But since Mad Dogs & Englishmen (the agency in which Reich's agency resides) is, after much speculation, officially calling it quits, we guess the bidding is really on.
How confusing the messages would be.... ;9
However, it's not at all uncommon for print ads in Scandinavia tyo carry the ad agencies name on them. Set in 6 point running on vertically the side of the ad closest to the gutter (if a magazine) or on ethe right of it's a bus-poster. Oddly, one never seems to find the agency name when the ad is utter crap. ;)
