The Bubble Project drew my attention once again today. Its been around for a while but thought I’d share it for those who have never seen. Over 50,000 bubble stickers have been printed. They have been continually placed on top of ads on the streets of New York. They are left blank, inviting passersby to fill them in. This project instantly transforms the intrusive and dull corporate monologues into a public dialogue. Our public spaces are returned back to the public. Since its launch in 2002, the Bubble Project has become a global project. Bubblers all around the globe are bubbling their own towns.
How to take part yourself is rather easy, as they have provided ready to use speech bubbles. So take to the streets and start adbusting away. Out.

It’s actually an idea from Ji Lee, Google’s Creative Director. Pretty inspiring dude!
