Friday Distraction

Here's a great bit of Friday distraction from the good people at VW.

In Plain Site

Not sure what the tv show will be like but the microsite for In Plain Site is pretty nifty. Based around a game where you are the special agent and essential your skills of observation are tested. Definitely worth a look.

Sébastien Chabal penalty kick

I found this great campaign from Orange France. Essentailly Sébastien Chabal is going to take a penalty and he needs a bit of help. Put in your name (from a selection), email and mobile number, and he'll give you a call to ask you where to shoot.

Then when he asks you, use your phone keypad to indicate where he should shoot and hey presto.

It's a nice touch that it's personalised so he actually calls you by name.

Now that's fashion

Jean Charles de Castelbajac has made the bold (and perhaps totally outragious) move of unveiling his Spring/Summer 2009 collection with a slightly out of the ordinary catwalk show. Not women dressed as rubbish or covered in mud, as some of his contemporaries have done. JC is going a step further and using an animated LEGO video.

This is absolutely fantastic!

3D Computer Interface

In the movie Minority Report, Tom Cruise uses a 3D type computer interfaces that he manipulates with his hands. Pretty impressive stuff. Well, guess what? Someone went and did it - created a real version!

The beginning reminds me of a cross between the The Lawnmowerman and Hackers.
