Converse took several Gorillaz, added Andre 3000 & James Murphy and asked them to “just do their thing”. The love child which followed was a collection of 4 sneakers and a brand new track: Do Ya Thang.

Curiois to see who follows in Converses’ “Three Artists.One Song” concept.

“Heart over head. Inclusion over ego. United by passion, we go all in. Go all in.”

After having teased us for a while with a battery of short clips, Adidas dropped their latest worldwide campaign and we are digging the whole Gavras x Justice x Adidas collab. Just like their previous ones, Adidas calls in a couple of friends with Lionel Messi, B.o.B, Beckham, Katy p Perry, Ed Banger and Derrick Rose amongst many other.

Great to see mixed reactions amongst several mad men when it comes to the new Adidas campaign. Maybe they have got a different mindset as Adidas definitely slam-dunked this one in my opinion.

Soundtrack is “Civilization” from the new Justice album which should drop in April.

Mmm, Gilette thought they’d create the world’s largest 5 o’clock shadow on Major League Baseball’s Derek Jeter. Can’t help but wonder where I saw this concept before …

Oh, right its a copy of the Stella Artois’ Ritual Project and yes we just happened to have mentioned the documentary Up There on the matter a couple of times before. Remember?

You know, that type of clips people love to call virals. Now we really don’t care and you may call ‘em whatever you want, we just think they’re hilarious. In order of appearance: The Hoff, Lundgren, Kimbo & Dokken. Out.

Coca Cola released three short films, Ride, Playground, and Peepshow, to kick off their new campaign for their energy drink Burn. What makes them great? Well, the subtle way they position the brand in it, a different approach from the in your face Redbull ads/clips we all have gotten used to throughout the years.

The first clip is probably the one which will be popping up everywhere, as it features burning skateboarders and shizzle, but definitely also take a look at the other two clips which in my eyes are even better :D

Ride (above), was directed by Garth Davis in Mexico City. It features a group of skateboarders, who actually were set on fire during the shoot, in order that they left flaming trails in their wake.

The other two films are more straight-up documentaries. Peepshow follows the exploits of a group of young female snowboarders, while Playground focuses on a young Philadelphia rapper who’s speciality is creating beats by hitting and beating objects around him An eye-opener worth watching/listening to. Out.

Adidas scores once again with the Star Wars approach. Hilarious bit with Beckham, who ‘played for Galaxy, far far away’. Out.

Well, to be honest I do know, with a lot of hassle and cursing.

One of the nifty features certain of these guiding systems offer is the possibility to customise the voice guidance. Tom Tom (amongst others) is one of the manufacturers who make this possible and it seems they have just made it possible to download Darth Vader (amongst other Star Wars voices) for their navigation system.  Can it get any better :D Out.

Sometimes I really wonder what it must be like to grow up or live in Japan or another Asian country. The following ad just reminded me af that. Its an anime themed commercial for Nike which features a futuristic sneaker wearer battling skyscraper size robots.

What’s not to love about the whole anime & manga culture. Out.

Back in November I wrote about “The Ritual Project“, a timelapse which showcases each of nine laborious steps behind the perfect glass of Stella. Following my post I received a nice mail from Jon, one one the people behind the project, thanking me for what I wrote and telling me that he would keep me posted on the finished product :D

Well that moment was like a couple of minutes ago when I opened my mailbox to find a couple of Vimeo links. The first one features the timelapse. Great to see what 3 weeks of hard work deliver.

The second features a trailer for a documentary called “Up There”, which follows the wallpainters. Out.

Everyone’s invited to our street corner along with some special guests, who travelled from a galaxy far, far away to launch a years worth of celebrations. In other words, Adidas has crossed over to the dark-side and joined forces with the Star Wars marketing/merchandising machine. A move I can not oppose and they probably won’t regret financially. New sneakers, new apparel, … all with a Star Wars feel, inspired by the characters and crafts you’ve followed for a lifetime.

Totally digging this line of kicks. Will have to try and secure myself a pair pretty soon. Check their new ad and beware of the dark-side. Out.

Vanilla is the most erotic scent to older men… is that what I should remember after seeing this ad? It will have to be deleted of my mind as soon as possible or I’ll have traumas and nightmares the next days. Out.
