Axe falling angels – Augmented Reality
This was still in my drafts, I forgot to publish it some time ago.
Very nice augmented reality gig in the middle of a trainstation in London:
Super Slow-Motion Motion on the Streets of Jerez
Samsung keeps pumping out viral videos, here is another one featuring „Colectivo De Arte“, who super slow-move around the city of Jerez, so it only looks right when fast forwarded. Choreographed moves are fed to them through Samusung headsets.
Foursquare and billboards: checkin for dogfood.
This is an interesting example of how you can leverage a location based service like foursquare to make your billboard ads more engaging: every time you check in at the billboard location, a dispenser – part of the „interactive“ billboard – releases some GranataPet dogfood.
Of course, you could have chosen SMS or Bluetooth as a way to interact with the billboard. But in that case, there wouldn’t have been any connection with the social network of the target audience. Using foursquare, the dog owners could inform not only their foursquare friends, but also their facebook friends and their twitter followers of the new way to access GranataPet dogfood…

The rise of Bacon
Bacon, or bacn – the nice brother of evil spam, is increasing. We all know the mails of facebook & Co, informing us about updates on their site. Emails we have not really enthusiastically subscribed to, yet we acknoledged and approved the fact that these sites will send us that stuff.
Well, a post on mashable features an infographic showing the rise of this trend in emails.
Twitter celebrates its 5th birthday
Twitter achieved some impressive numbers in the past. However, much more interesting are some of the stories around it (German).
