Guerilla Tennis art
‘Park, Set and Match’ is an incredibly creative, disruptive live art piece by Jorge Mañes. The guerrilla art installation is essentially an abuse of London’s supermarket parking garages (read: hell on earth) which he paints to turn into tennis courts, then holds real matches on them!
These privately owned properties are monitored by CCTV cameras and security guards; however, to legally occupy a parking space for two hours, you have to make some type of purchase (you could always stick to chewing gum.) Once your purchase is made, you can then set up your tennis match which will be automatically ‘televised’ by CCTV cameras. Really want to aggravate the security guards? Demand a copy of the tape: it is illegal for them not to give you one under h the creative commons act.

VIRAL SHOCK
This is a very random video called “J1zz In My Pants” that is spreading the internet like wildfire. It has had 2 million views in as many days, so is going to be huge. The video above shows the strange music video with ridiculous lyrics about men getting aroused too easily. The clip involves the glorious Andy Samberg but clearly had a less than small budget behind it, yet Justin Timberlake makes a brilliant cameo.
Not many details have been revealed yet, but I can tell you the song is the first single off Incredibad, the upcoming CD from Andy Samberg’s comedy posse, the Lonely Island.

Fanta High Frequency advertising
Fanta’s new mobile app, Stealth Sound System, uses a surefire way to target a specific market. The app is meant as a way for teens to communicate on their cell phones without adults hearing them, and the Stealth Sound System features high-pitched sound frequencies that are inaudible to most people over 20.
Fanta’s Stealth Sound System is based on a controversial technology known colloquially as Mosquito Teen Repellent, which was developed by Howard Stapleton a few years ago to deter teens from loitering outside London shops.
Within Stealth Sound System, individual frequencies are tagged to represent phrases, essentially creating a new language only teens can hear and understand. Stealth Sound System was developed by Ogilvy Advertising.
Prinz M Pinakat, interactive marketing manager for Coca-Cola Europe, said it was vital to grow relationships with consumers via the popular mobile channel. "This new focus on providing entertaining digital content also fits perfectly with the Fanta brand vision to create more play in the world," he added. (moconews.net)

Sony Bravia Marketing
The feature is said to make viewing smoother, which will be great for sports fans. To demonstrate their claims, the giant spinning Bravia-drome displayed the illusion of Brazilian football player Kaka in action from 64 still photos.
The giant zoetrope, which measures 10 meters in diameter, broke the Guinness World Record for the largest device of its kind ever built.Samstag, 6. Dezember 2008

Whopper Virgins
urger King’s ‘Whopper Virgins’ campaign is a taste-test between BK’s Whopper and McDonald’s Big Mac. It took place amongst people living in remote villages of Thailand and Romania, as well as outposts in Greenland; people who’ve never had either of those burgers cross their lips.
Controversy over Burger King’s ‘Whopper Virgins’ taste test ad/documentary, created by ad giant Crispin, Porter and Bogusky, can be found on YouTube, blogs, and even editorials. At issue is whether the people used as ‘Whopper Virgins’ test subjects are being exploited and/or made fun of.
As it stands now, it seems the Burger King powers that be simply are looking for unbiased, pure (virgin) taste-buds, when it comes determining taste preference of their BK Whopper versus the McDonald’s Big Mac.
Test results and full-footage from the Burger King ‘Whopper Virgins’ will be released in four days, according to the Burger King ‘Whopper Virgins’ website.

Urban Play - movin trees
“The Moving Forest are 100 trees strapped into 100 shopping-carts lurking around in an urban environment blocking peoples way and forcing passers to act on them. According to NL’s Gen Yamamoto the idea comes from a story he heard as a child about a forest where the trees move at night so that people would loose there way and could never get out. This story has been haunting him ever since. In his mind he could imagine people adopting a tree e.g. homeless could start to take one on their journey through the city. The trees would pop up unexpectedly in small side streets or dark corners or be pushed over a big public square. They would group in smaller groups or be sparkled over the town.”
