This is a great little personal project from Jorge Lopez. Jorge tells us, “Two different people each time - always unknown for me - perform exactly the same conversation.”

INSA - Looking For Love In All The Wrong Places

Protein presents a major new London installation and exhibition by INSA, in association with IAM1 & Nike Sportswear.

“Looking For Love In All The Wrong Places is a stunning new solo installation and exhibition by the infamous London-based artist INSA, and opens on 17th July in association with the Nike Sportswear IAM1 launch of the 2009 Air Maxim.

Check the viral video for proof.”

Madison Avenue presents…

Design student Dan Flanagan wrote to us this week, “This week I’m putting into motion a social experiment on advertising. It’s a satirical advertising campagin designed to (supposedly) save the advertising industry from the darkness of the recession. The campaign sells markets Madison Avenues greatest product—The Consumer—and promotes it using some of the devious and dastardly techniques employed by advertisers. The corporate home of the campaign is online here and the sister site will document the chaotic advertising stunts/pranks/etc that promote it.”
