Today is EARTH DAY!

Earth Day, celebrated April 22, is a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's environment. It was founded by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson as an environmental teach-in in 1970 and is celebrated in many countries every year. This date is Spring in the Northern Hemisphere and Autumn in the Southern Hemisphere.

( So, let's all be nice to the environment and give thanks to mother Earth :)

Inspired Bicycles

Filmed over the period of a few months in and around Edinburgh by Dave Sowerby, this video of Inspired Bicycles team rider Danny MacAskill features probably the best collection of street/street trials riding ever seen. There's some huge riding, but also some of the most technically difficult and imaginative lines you will ever see. Without a doubt, this video pushes the envelope of what is perceived as possible on a trials bike.

Britain's Got Talent - Susan Boyle

So it is said, "Don't judge a book by its cover." Indeed a true testimony on the recent British reality show, Britain's Got Talent, where a 47 year old scottish villager Susan Boyle, walked up the stage in front of a sceptic audience and critics. People were all against her and kept laughing, eager to see a comedy in progress. The moment she opened her mouth, the rest was history as the crowd gave her a standing ovation and Piers, Amanda and Simon gave her three guaranteed "YES". Lovely! Check out her performance here.

All About Scam

The following adverts won in the recent Dubai Lynx Advertising Awards 2009, was created by FP7 Doha, Qatar. This is in part of my first post (Creative Controversy-Lynx), I would say, Honestly... I love these ads, truly deserving for some silverware and applause! Too bad they weren't for real, Imagine not only the client never approved them BUT they weren't their clients at all! Kudos to a certain guy called John Doe and Kuwait's infamous Anubis, and the culprits were taken into question and justice (for the industry & the region) was made!










It is indeed sad how far a desparate Creative Director would go for fame, money and a whole lot of egos?!

Childish Labour

This one goes out to all you creative heads out there, created by the author of SCAMP blog, as he quote "The goal was to give Clients, Planners and Agency managers some tips on how to get more out of Creatives, by means of an analogy that I hoped would help them understand us better, and would suggest some different behaviours in how they deal with us.

The analogy is that Creatives are a bit like children - both in the positives (curious, imaginative, playful) and the occasional challenges (sulky, fussy etc)".

Pretty cool, (for me though).

Enjoy!
