I can imagine T-Mobile jumping all over this – life’s for sharing and that.

The web game is downloaded as a tool bar and at any given time during your browsing experience, you can be attacked by the deadly Helghast.

From Agency Republic. I really love this.
Simple, fun, community fostering idea. Good work.

Everything from cartoon characters, to vegetables, burgers and animals. He says ‘I am an artist, drag queen, former nudist, born again Christian, average 46 year old guy’ but I’m not sure if there is anything ‘average’ about him.

Has an exhibition on at the Forster gallery, round the corner from our offices in Shoreditch. They say he ‘explores the physicality of the human body whilst also drawing comparisons with baroque sculpture and iconography, creating a sort of “optical hyperactivity” through his seductive paintings, their content, style and surface seamlessly intermix into intense imagery’. I just like the burst of colours personally….

Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) etc.
He says “This project visually examines these vast and bizarre measures of our society, in large intricately detailed prints assembled from thousands of smaller photographs. Employing themes such as the near versus the far, and the one versus the many, I hope to raise some questions about the role of the individual in a society that is increasingly enormous, incomprehensible, and overwhelming.

Every year we take our whole company to a music festival. It was originally my idea and admittedly as much a selfish as a practical one. When you get to 50+ people, where can you go for a Summer party? Normally, you end up spending a fortune trying to lay on entertainment but with a festival all the entertainment is laid on for you and people can enjoy it in any way they like. Bestival is a perfect fit for glue. Lots of silly dressing up – this year’s theme was ‘20,000 freaks under the sea’ and loads of good electronic music. Despite the hardcore rain and mud this year we all still had a great time. I particularly love the smaller stages. The brands that get their sponsorship right really get it right. Take a bow Rizla for their superb recreation of a Space-style terrace and XBOX 360 for their living room vibe. Barry Ashworth from the Dub Pistols played an amazing set that went through everything from disco re-edits to electro house.
