Nike Ambient Graffiti
In 7 days INSA ran the city of east London, painting 35 pieces on route of Charlie Dark’s map for The IAM1 Journey Nike Sportswear project. Produced by Protein and documented by INSA’s long time collaborator, photographer Ethel, each of the 35 hand painted pieces form one of the centre pieces of INSAs major London solo show for 2009.
Great example of maximising the creative: ambient placements which work in themselves, but combined to create some viral content.

Redesigning unconsidered flyers
Cardon copy, takes the vernacular of self-distributed fliers and tear-offs we have all seen in our neighborhoods. It involves hijacking these unconsidered fliers and redesigning them, over powering their message with a new visual language. I then replace the original with the redesign in its authentic environment.
Printing wastes trees
Interesting plug-in that plays a dissuading chainsaw sound when you hit print
The Extraordinaries
The Extraordinaries is a Mechanical Turk type platform that distributes problems to willing problem solvers via mobile.
Marvelous.

Self portrait machine

What interests me is what the benefit is in putting your [limp] arms into it. The Self-portrait machine is the brainchild of Jen Hui Liao.
