This is what happens when two viral forces collide. It might smell good, but it's pretty ugly.

At the end of every creative brief?
"The only way to discover the limits of the possible, is to go beyond them, into the impossible"-Sir Arthur C. Clarke
Dazzle The Rainbow
Here's another cool Skittles mob piece from the UK. In a live interactive competition, a character named David Phoenix challenges Skittles fans to a duel of epic consequence - or at least delicious consequence. Phoenix wants Facebook fans to try to bury him in a tomb of Skittles. Every person who logs on to the app activates hundreds of Skittles which are dropped on Phoenix every 15 minutes. After being buried in almost 2 million Skittles with time to spare, the mob won.

Digital Mapping - Prague Clock Tower
In celebration of the astrological clock tower's 600 year anniversary, Macula composed this amazing light show. According to their Vimeo site, the only lighting technology used were two Christie projectors (2x18000 lumens in HD). The detail and effects are amazing. Be sure to check out Macula's site for more examples of their work.

The Conan Blimp
This is one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time and a great execution of an offline/online idea.
To promote his new show on TBS, Conan is sending a blimp up and down the East Coast for the month of October. You can follow it on Twitter or Foursquare for check-ins above his favorite spots. The project also implements the first ever auto-updating check-in location. So, spot the blimp and get a "Conan Blimpspotter" badge. Pretty cool. The talented folks over at Breakfast put this together.via

The Fringe Movement
Today, Anya and I visited a super cool artist collective in Boston called The Fringe Movement. A raw, old warehouse houses offices for a few web designers, a photographer, a letterpress printer, custom bike builders and a bunch of painters/sculptors.
So inspiring!

Creative Mecca
This past weekend I went to St Louis with my wife and kids to visit my brother's family.The first day, they took us to the City Museum. It's described as "an eclectic mixture of children's playground, funhouse, surrealistic pavilion, and architectural marvel made out of unique, found objects." This description, although accurate, does the place no justice. It was the first time in my life that I've experienced a "you have to see it to believe it" moment. The museum was imagined and built by internationally acclaimed sculptor Bob Cassilly and his crew of 20 artisans. Among the millions of items they used are salvaged bridges, construction cranes, miles of tile and wire, two abandoned planes and even a school bus that hangs over the roof's edge. Everywhere you turn within the 600,000 square-foot former show factory, there are places to hide, things to climb and amazing slides - including a 10-story slide that goes from the roof to the second floor caves. Experiencing such creative vision and execution has really reinvigorated me. It's also made me realize that I need to continue to push myself creativity and those working at RTH.
